I just tried to emerge mozilla and it failed because of lack of disk space. After the attempt, my hda3 is 100% full (it wasn't before). Does anyone know if there is an emerge command to clean up the files after a failed install? I apologize if this has been asked recently - I couldn't find a reference to this problem.

You can get rid of anything you like in /var/tmp/portage. This is where packages are extracted for building by emerge and ebuild.

Thanks - deleted files in my /var/tmp/portage/mozilla-1.0-r3/work/mozilla and everything is hunky-dory now .
