Bug#495331: 495331

[Michael Vogt <mvo@debian.org>]

Hi,

I noticed that this bug got reopened. If this still affects you, could
you please:
- check if the current 0.7.16 version of apt is installed
- if it still fails with that, could you please attach your
  /etc/apt/sources.list and everything in /etc/apt/sources.list.d ?

I was not able to reproduce this anymore with german (or french) and
stable, testing, unstable, security and volatile in my sources.list -
apt-cache stats gives me 55k descriptions with german.

Don't get me wrong, I think the current limit is a problem, but
personally I think its not a RC problem if its not triggered with
stable+testing+unstable. 

The patch to increase the limit will be applied once development is
fully open again but for now I think rebuilding the dependencies of
apt because of the ABI break is not ideal. I'm happy to reconsider if
the release managers think its not a problem (with bin-NMU etc) or if
new evidence suggests its triggered more easily (e.g. by adding dvd/cd
sets etc).

Thanks,
 Michael
