Title:
  Silent failure when out of /tmp space

Status in “cdrkit” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnomebaker

  In Gnomebaker 0.6.2, copying a DVD when /tmp is low on space will
  result in a truncated, broken copy. There is no visual error report .

  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Use a small (hint: ramdisk) /tmp space and plan to copy a larger-than-/tmp DVD.
  2. Tools->Copy DVD
  3. Copy with "Burn the disk" (single optical drive system, if that matters).
  4. Watch the burn "succeed" and enjoy a new coaster/frisbee.

  I suggest catching and failing on a out-of-space error when writing
  the temporary iso file.

  User workaround: In the preferences, set the temporary folder to a
  place that has plenty of room.
