the kickstart used to create the system.

When creating a large livecd, probably about 6000-7000 MB, revisor tells me it cannot install the packages due to not enough space on the filesystem /var/tmp/revisor.
(see revisorlog.log for a full --debug 9 output)
In english, the error message in bottom of revisorlog.log is "Installation of package #packagename# requires #size# MB on filesystem /var/tmp/revisor"
(Where #packagename# is the name of package and #size# is the required size)

When using "part / --size 20000" as told by one of the revisor developers in kickstart, I get some messages in terminal (see terminal.log)
The error messages in english is:
umount: /var/tmp/revisor: Device is busy.
umount: /var/tmp/revisor: Device is busy.
ioctl: LOOP_CLR_FD: Device or resource busy.

Comment 3 Sebastian Nielsen 2008-08-15 15:18:14 UTC
Ill change this to Urgent since this bug makes Revisor unuseable for larger projects.

Comment 4 Jeroen van Meeuwen 2008-10-19 11:30:54 UTC
What version of Revisor is this, as I'm unable to reproduce this behavour using the latest version, 2.1.1-7

Comment 5 Sebastian Nielsen 2008-10-19 13:17:41 UTC
I was using the latest version available when this bug was submitted. In other words, 2.1.1-6.

Has this been fixed in version 2.1.1-7?

Comment 6 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2009-02-01 00:05:51 UTC
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

Comment 7 Jeroen van Meeuwen 2009-05-31 10:57:16 UTC
2.1.4 is out now, and I haven't had any problems building large optical live media. Can you retest / reopen if necessary?
