The GEOS-5 (AGCM) source code checks out at about 40 MB of space. Once compiled, the complete package is about 500 MB. Your home space on '''discover''' may not be sufficient for checking out and building the code. You should consider either requesting either a larger quota in your home space (call the tag x6-9120 and ask, telling them you are doing GEOS-5 development work) or building in your (larger) nobackup space. But consider, ''nobackup'' is not backed up. So be careful... | The GEOS-5 (AGCM) source code checks out at about 40 MB of space. Once compiled, the complete package is about 500 MB.
