Package: dpkg Version: 1.10.20 Severity: normal For low memory (or embedded systems), dpkg should not load the available packages into memory. For the stable distribution, this takes up nearly 11MB and made it difficult to upgrade my system -- upgrading libc6 terminated due to memory constrains. I was able to install my packages by commenting out all sources...
My embedded system is a PowerPC with 32MB of ram using a NFS root for development.
