Followup-For: Bug #166758 Package: apt Version: 0.5.4 If your sources.list has too many sources, apt will bail out during 'Reading Package Lists' phase with a "Dynamic MMap ran out of room" error.
This cannot be fixed by increasing a magic value (I'm guessing APT:Cache-Limit) in apt.conf, because in the code the DynamicMMap constructor is never passed a WorkSpace argument and the default value of 2 MBytes is always used. Why cannot dynamic mmap be more dynamic and increase workspace automatically? Or at least a working apt.conf value should be provided for us crazy users who try to have all Debian branches from at least two nearest mirrors in our sources.list/ -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux zeta 2.4.19 #1 Fri Aug 30 13:15:28 EET 2002 i686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=lt_LT.ISO-8859-13 Versions of packages apt depends on: ii libc6 2.2.5-14.3 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 1:2.95.4-7 The GNU stdc++ library Marius Gedminas -- If "con" is the opposite of "pro", then what is the opposite of progress?
