the standard set. You can either reduce the number, or do what it suggests
and increase the mmap size. Paste the following five lines into a
terminal, as root:
cat >/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/80cache-limit <<!
# Increase the cache limit from 8388608 bytes
#
APT::Cache-Limit "10000000";
!
I did this, pasted the above into a root terminal, but it does not help. Exact same error as before reported.

Then run these two commands (also as root) and you should be able to
use synaptic again:
apt-get clean
apt-get update
