Package: upgrade-reports
Archive date: Sat May 21 19:00:01 UTC 2005
Upgrade date: Sun May 22
uname -a: Linux sparc3 2.4.18 #2 Thu Apr 11 14:37:17 EDT 2002 sparc64 GNU/Linux
Method: aptitude -f --with-recommends dist-upgrade
Contents of /etc/apt/sources.list:
before upgrade:
deb ftp://mirror.ens-lyon.fr/debian stable main
deb-src ftp://mirror.ens-lyon.fr/debian stable main
deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main
I first tried to add the same 3 lines with "stable" replaced by "sarge",
leaving the previous ones uncommented, but this caused both aptitude and
apt-get to segfault. When I removed the "stable" lines, everything
worked again.
The machine was installed under woody last week-end (netboot, and
network install), so there weren't many packages installed yet.
All packages were from woody/main.
I didn't see any package failing to upgrade. However, I set the debconf
frontend to noninteractive at the beginning of the upgrade process, but
got prompted a few times, in particular for the glibc and exim upgrades.
The kernel still needs to be updated (I'm hesitating to do that without
physical access to the machine).
dpkg -l output before and after upgrade is attached. Full typescript is
available if necessary.
Cheers,
Julien Cristau

Hello Julien,
The release notes now include the following work-around:
----
4.3.1 Possible issues during upgrade
If an operation using aptitude, apt-get or dpkg fails with the error
E: Dynamic MMap ran out of room
the default cache space is insufficient. You can solve this by either
removing or commenting lines you don't need in /etc/apt/sources.list or
by increasing the cache size. The cache size can be increased by setting
APT::Cache-Limit in /etc/apt/apt.conf. The following command will set it
to a value that should be sufficient for the upgrade:
echo 'APT::Cache-Limit "12500000";' >> /etc/apt/apt.conf
This assumes that you do not yet have this variable set in that file.
----
(Thanks to Frans Pop)
so I am closing this bug.
Thanks a lot for your upgrade-reports,
