Package: dpkg
Version: 1.13.22
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

I have make an library upgrade last week, and not edit any conf files.
But now if i use apt, aptitude, dpkg, i give this error message:

dpkg -i libgcc1_1%3a4.1.1-14_amd64.deb
(Lecture de la base de données... dpkg : erreur de traitement de 
libgcc1_1%3a4.1.1-14_amd64.deb (--install) :
 échec de « malloc » (2147483754 octets): Ne peut allouer de la mémoire
Des erreurs ont été rencontrées pendant l'exécution :
 libgcc1_1%3a4.1.1-14_amd64.deb
L'exécution a été arrêtée car il y avait trop d'erreurs.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/cache/apt/archives#

In english i hope that will say:
dpkg -i libgcc1_1%3a4.1.1-14_amd64.deb
(Read data base... dpkg : error when install libgcc1_1%3a4.1.1-14_amd64.deb 
(--install) :
failure of « malloc » (2147483754 octets): he can't allocate memory 
Error will be found when installation of:
 libgcc1_1%3a4.1.1-14_amd64.deb
Installation will be stop, because too many errors exist.

And it's the same matter when i would remove one package:
dpkg -r xt
(Lecture de la base de données... dpkg : erreur de traitement de xt 
(--remove) : échec de « malloc » (2147483754 octets): Ne peut allouer de la 
mémoire
Des erreurs ont été rencontrées pendant l'exécution :
 xt
L'exécution a été arrêtée car il y avait trop d'erreurs.

But this is my memory capacities(at the time when i make dpkg command:
Mem:    507916k total,   466504k used,    41412k free,     6724k buffers
Swap:   441768k total,   225900k used,   215868k free,   139200k cached



I have tested for make the dpkg rescue installation by:
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/quick-reference/ch-package.en.html
3.3.7 What to do if the dpkg command is broken
        $ links http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/d/dpkg/
       ... download the good dpkg_version_arch.deb
     $ su
     password: *****
     # ar x dpkg_version_arch.deb
     # mv data.tar.gz /data.tar.gz
     # cd /
     # tar xzfv data.tar.gz
But that don't change anything.

In irc.debian.org#debian, we say me to create: 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/sam# cat /etc/apt/apt.conf
APT
{
Cache-Limit "8388608";
}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/sam#

But that don't resolve too the matter.

My system will be frozen about gestion of package. I can't make
anymore thing with dpkg. apt-get update run normally.

This is my first bug report, so i don't know if i must add more
because i don't see where the problem live.

(I profit of this communication by Debian Team, that i love this
system, wich offer at the world, an perfect spirit, and benefit.
Your work was an evolution of human beeing. I thank you all,
and hope that you will be have a good life)
