Cannot reinstall most recent Torch. Cloning fresh repo and attempting to install via install.sh which performs a series of make calls results in:

There is not enough space on /tmp and this is a remote machine so I don't have sudo access to increase it. Is there any workaround for this? Basically what I want to know if there is any way to force make store compilation files somewhere not on /tmp?
回答1:
It appears that I just needed to create tmp dir and set it as TMPDIR env variable.
mkdir $HOME/tmp
export TMPDIR=$HOME/tmp
回答2:
It depends on what tmp is.
Sometimes, as an optimization, tmp is mounted in a ramdisk. You can take a look at that using mount or in /etc/fstab.
If this is not the case, then make sure the disk partition where /tmp is has enough space, or delete other unused temporary files.
BleachBit, packaged in many distros, can help you freeing space.
