package: devscripts version: 2.11.4 severity: normal I haven't really spent a lot of time looking into the details of this, but I've found that lintian always runs out of tmp space when building chromium (a rather large package) via debuild. I imagine this is because debuild is overidding the TMPDIR setting. This is an issue due to /tmp now being a tmpfs mount by default, which is rather small as a percent of total system memory. To reproduce:
$ mkdir /home/name/tmp $ export TMPDIR=/home/name/tmp $ apt-get source chromium $ cd chromium* $ debuild Lintian checks will run out of space. Note that the following succeeds: $ export TMPDIR=/home/name/tmp $ lintian chromium*.changes Thanks for looking into this.
