Package: apt
Version: 0.7.21
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

the default dynamic MMap in apt is getting too small again. Since
ia32-apt-get adds i386 Packages.gz to the mix, thereby doubling the
number of packages, even a conservative sources.list results in:

Reading package lists... Error!
E: Dynamic MMap ran out of room. Please increase the size of APT::Cache-Limit. Current value: 25165824. (man 5 apt.conf)

I would welcome it if the default value could be increased again.

MfG
	Goswin

The error is gone as the MMap is now able to grow automatically
as needed at runtime on all architectures (by falling back to a char[]
on e.g. kfreebsd systems which do not have mremap).

  * apt-pkg/pkgcachegen.{cc,h}:
    - make the used MMap moveable (and therefore dynamic resizeable) by
      applying (some) mad pointer magic (Closes: #195018)
