Ok, the package needs a lot of memory to build. However, I already have 16GB of RAM and 8 GB of swap, and I can build all the 38000 packages in Debian using such configuration. If I need a bigger machine just for this single package, I think that's still a problem that deserves to be looked at. Would not be possible to refactor the code so that it needs less memory to build? What changed recently in the package so that the current version needs a lot more memory than before? Thanks.
