Description:
My pacman cache is on a ramfs; with pacman 4.1 I got an error when I try to install a package or update my system: error: Partition /var/cache/pacman too full: 559 blocks needed, 0 blocks free error: failed to commit transaction (not enough free disk space) I guess this error came with the commit 6e29f02e94022e141eced2e0cdcb5b85894317ad, if I'm not mistaken there was no free space check before. Additional info: * pacman 4.1 * CheckSpace uncommented in pacman.conf * fstab line for pacman cache: none /var/cache/pacman ramfs defaults 0 0 Steps to reproduce: 1/ Add the line to fstab 2/ Uncomment CheckSpace in pacman.conf 3/ Install or update a package |

Reason for closing: Won't fix
Additional comments about closing: ramfs isn't a real filesystem and will always report 0 size. If you insist on using it over tmpfs, then you'll need to disable CheckSpace.

Why on earth would you use ramfs over tmpfs?
