I might agree with you on that because the Hurd OS is running under KVM
with 128M of RAM allocated for it.
Although KVM is fast I've felt that Hurd is not _very_ good at memory
management.
This could be true because when I lower down the number of packages, the
installation proceeds.

BTW, if this holds true what do you think would be a possibility for a
workaround (excluding the idea of
Lowering down the number of packages ;-)    )  ?

Is there a possibility to parse reports one-by-one and maybe write to a
temporary file and then read it ?
Just let's avoid reading the entire thing into RAM. What do you say ?

A wild guess, how much memory do you have?

It occurred to me that could be memory swap management issue with Hurd.

Looking at memory usage running top might tell you it's using up memory.

Of course, I could be barking at the wrong tree, but one possibility.
