For whatever reason Anaconda generates a separate file system for /tmp

If /tmp is no longer part of / then its size should be easily adjustable.


Check the filesystem -- it's in RAM by default using tmpfs, and tmpfs
defaults to a size of half of physical ram. To disable and go back to haivng it 
be part of /,

   sudo systemctl mask tmp.mount

To change the limit while leaving it in-ram, I assume you'd put the desired
size in the Options line in the systemd tmp.mount file, but there may be a
better way.

I believe the argument is that if Brasero needs more space, /var/tmp would
be a better place.

This is a fine example of what a facepalm (to put it mildly) the whole /tmp-on-tmpfs is, really...
