Salutations,

I just looked at yaourt's yaourtrc and it's clear that it's storing
its temporary files in /tmp. Building with yaourt means building in
tmpfs which would for large compilation jobs can exhaust the tmpfs
file system. Either extend the size of /tmp by specifying a larger
size when mounting in /tmp (using fstab or just command line) or set a
different direcotry via yaourt --tmp <temporary directory>.

This should really be posted to the AUR mailing list since it's an AUR
issue. I hope this helps.

Regards,
Mark
