[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#825359: sbuild: unrealistic figure about total space used

[Santiago Vila]

Package: sbuild
Version: 0.69.0-2

Dear maintainer:

I used sbuild to build gcc-6-cross-ports.

The build log had this as the last line:

Build needed 15:13:17, 2194502040k disc space

That would be more than 2000 GB, but there is simply no way this may
be possible, because the build was made on a virtual machine and
the virtual disk had a size of 24 GB.

Has "du" changed behaviour and sbuild is confused about it?

Thanks.
