Feature #303736, revision 1
Title: yast and libzypp should respect the disk space reserved for root 
  
openSUSE-11.1: New
Priority 
    Requester: Desirable 
 
Requested by: lslezak@xxxxxxxxxx
Partner organization: openSUSE.org 
 
Description: 
If e.g. root partition has 70MB free user space and 500MB free space reserved 
for root user yast reports 570MB total free space. But installation of a 
package which is greater than 70MB fails:

installing package kdelibs3-devel-doc-3.5.5-45 needs 335MB on the / filesystem

Yast should display the non-root free space (70MB in this case).

It seems that it is valid only for ext2/ext3 filesystems (XFS and ReiserFS seem 
to not support root space). Default reserved space for ext2/ext3 is 5%.
