I'm upgrading an Intel Compute Stick - it started with a vanilla openSUSE 13.2. The root filesystem has about 7Gb, currently only 450Mb available.
During zypper patch I get this:
Installation of glibc-locale-2.19-16.18.1 failed: Error: Subprocess failed. Error: RPM failed: installing package glibc-locale-2.19-16.18.1.x86_64 needs 39MB on the / filesystem
To test it, I created a 39MB file in /tmp, so what is the real problem?
Answer in https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2015-10/msg00071.html thread IIRC. IIRC, package management system mishandling hard links when calculating requirements for the lebenty gazillion files in that rpm.
It looks like the error message is simply in error :-) The package needs an _additional_ 39Mb on the root filesystem, not a total 39Mb. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (1.9°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
