I was wondering what this magic is doing: # echo 'APT::Cache-Limit "25165824";' >> /etc/apt/apt.conf which works for me, BTW. I have 512MB RAM. I loaded Woody and was updating as part of the process of upgrading to testing then to unstable. How'd you get the number? Where is the problem? Testing? It seems so because removing testing and unstable references from the sources.list avoids the problem. Opening up only testing finds the problem. What is the problem? I know there's not enough memory allocated. More details would be interesting (I think). Oddly, the solution to the problem is well covered in cached email and the APT HOWTO: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-erros.en.html#s-erros-comuns What is not covered are the questions above. -- Mike Moving forward in pushing back the envelope of the corporate paradigm. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
