Snapcraft hangs with no space left on device

[Nathan Teodosio]

https://launchpad.net/~chromium-team/+snap/chromium-ffmpeg/+build/2484095 gets out of space but never returns control, hanging the builder.

Only visible part of the log is

Thanks for the report.

Could you give some background information?

Our builders supposed to have 80 GB hard disk, see https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/BuilderSpecs. Is it possible that this is not sufficient for your build?

How much space do you need when you build it locally?

[Nathan Teodosio (nteodosio)]

The build in the description is from the chromium-ffmpeg snap.

As (for the first time) three versions have to be supported at the time of
writing, I had to build it from three different Chromiums tarballs. As each
unpacked tarball will amount to at least 20 GB, it is probable that space was
not sufficient.

I worked around the issue but at any rate Snapcraft should not hang when it
gets out of space, it should terminate.

I only added Launchpad to the bug task for the case it could be some problem on
its side, but probably this is just on Snapcraft.
