This reservation is really done on a per-file granularity; it's not for doing things like "reserve me 8G of space for some number of files I may write later" - it's more like "reserve me 5.2M of space on this file descriptor; ok that worked now I'll write to it; rinse; repeat" So I'm not sure this directly helps the case where, say, the test transaction squeaks in with enough space, something else uses up some space after that, and then the real install of the rpm set fails ...
which is, sadly, exactly what I'd want to protect for. oh well. thanks, -sv -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
