Bad experiences have thaught me not to do that. It might have, though. I didn't follow the development of pacman, so I actually don't know if there is a sort of check on available disk space yet. Why not implement a '--no-cache' option for pacman, to delete the downloaded tar.gz right after the successful installation of each pkg? Marco
