Apparently kernel-image-2.2.17-1 uses an epoch, so apt (or dselect)
wants to replace your image with that one. This happened at least once
before and the way to avoid the problem is to use an epoch yourself
when creating the package:

Hi there ...
I messed up some files on my system and needed to
reinstall everything again. When I was finished with
all my packages I wanted to run "apt-get update".
apt-get fetched all the lists but when it was reading/parsing
the lists, I got an error message:
E: Dynamic MMap ran out of room!
I am trying this again with a decent subject line. Sorry
about that.
