Description:

Creating chroots with mkarchroot will not function properly if the copied pacman.conf has CheckSpace set.

I have attached a patch which makes mkarchroot automatically comment this line out if it is not already.

You'll need to explain "will not function properly"

Well the problem I had was, I could create a chroot fine and use it once to build a package. However, every subsequent attempt at building would fail. Disabling CheckSpace worked for me. I have repoduced the error on 3 different machines. Have only tested the CheckSpace thing on one though.

Hmm, I just tried enabling CheckSpace and it still works fine. I haven't changed anything else though I don't know what was going wrong before, this is weird. Please disregard this. I'm sorry, I'll double check before submitting next time.
