I have this issue, too, but only on my laptop. I have 3 systems that I use paru for, all CachyOS. I use the same paru.conf and pacman.conf on each machine. Both my desktop and headless server work fine, but not my laptop, which suffers this issue. I can get around it by either disabling CheckSpace for pacman or disabling Chroot for paru, but it’s not the most ideal.
I suspect the issue is when the chroot was created with an older version of pacman. When it needs to update pacman, it might fail to do so because /etc/makepkg.conf.d is mounted read-only so that path cannot be upgraded.
In practice it's fine not to upgrade that path because there's nothing critical for the chroot there, and it's mounted from the host, which might have a new pacman version already. But it's fair to detect that it can't be properly upgraded. Maybe there's a way to pacstrap this upgrade instead (specifically for the pacman package), or to run it without mounting /etc/makepkg.conf.d (since the "package upgrade" step doesn't need to build packages, it doesn't need the mounts).
I actually found a way around this: just delete the directory Chroot is set to. The default path (taken from the man page) is /var/lib/aurbuild, which is what I use; running the following command works for me:
sudo rm -rvf /var/lib/aurbuild
Now, paru -Syu works again. I think the Chroot runs out of space even though the host machine doesn't and I don't know how to add more disk space to a chroot so I chose to just purge it.
