As a result, building OE-core with just 20GB times of disk space fails because required spaces exceeds that temporarily. With enhancements it is possible to build OE-core with less than 20GB. Proof-of-concept code is in https://github.com/pohly/poky/commits/rmwork Open question: a clean way of injecting do_rm_work into recipes is needed, which might depend on bitbake enhancements.
