Please, don't do that. It's well known and filed problem, which occures
in lists again and again (especially on debian-user list). Discusion
could be find in the archives elsewhere, solution is:
in your /etc/apt/apt.conf fill in: APT::Cache-Limit 25165824 (the number
should be lesser, for instance a half of this amount). The reason for it
you can find yourself in the archive.
