I believe the limit are 2^31-1 bytes. A 2123001900 byte file in our repo works, a 2488475395 byte file does not. We stumble over this problem regularly because we are using APT to distribute Windows programs onto our software deployment servers, and those programs can be quite big. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
