Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.6.1-1.1
Severity: normal

The dynamic mmap fails when multiple package lists are used. I suspect this has 
something to do with physical memory
size (256MB) because there is enough swap.

256MB is not that small, and can be used for simpler desktop or server quite 
easily. But not with apt/aptitude.
It can be reproduced by using all stable/testing/unstable/experimental package 
lists. This is only a test case. 
However, using testing/unstable/experimental to install a testing system with a 
few experimental packages (like fixed 
X graphics drivers) is quite reasonable, and once a non-debian source is added 
it also makes apt/aptitude unusable.
