Package: aptitude Version: 0.4.11.11-1 Using my crowded sources.list, aptitude refuses to do anything when using french l10n:
# aptitude install Lecture des listes de paquets... Erreur ! E: Vous avez dépassé le nombre de descriptions que cette version d'APT est capable de traiter.

Lecture des listes de paquets... Erreur ! E: Vous avez dépassé le nombre de descriptions que cette version d'APT est capable de traiter.

No problem when setting LC_ALL=C, and I could not find a parameter in examples/configure.index that I could tune to help. Either a pointer to it is missing in the error message, or the parameter is missing altogether, or that limit should be made dynamic. ==== sources.list deb http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free deb http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free ## *stable deb http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian lenny main non-free contrib deb http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian lenny main non-free contrib deb http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile lenny/volatile main contrib non-free deb http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile lenny/volatile-sloppy main contrib non-free deb http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian etch main non-free contrib deb http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian etch main non-free contrib deb http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile etch/volatile main contrib non-free deb http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile etch/volatile-sloppy main contrib non-free ## exp deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian ../project/experimental main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian ../project/experimental main contrib non-free ## externals deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org testing main deb-src http://www.debian-multimedia.org testing main ==== apt.conf.d/99local APT::Cache-Limit "33554432"; Aptitude::Get-Root-Command "sudo:/usr/bin/sudo"; ==== preferences Explanation: score debian-multimedia lower than unstable but still get them ugraded Package: * Pin: release o=Unofficial Multimedia Packages Pin-Priority: 101 Explanation: same as Default-Release, but origin-restricted as well Package: * Pin: release o=Debian, a=testing Pin-Priority: 990 Explanation: just enough so they are auto upgraded Package: * Pin: release a=experimental,o=Debian Pin-Priority: 101 ==== END -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
