[Aptitude-devel] Bug#917529: aptitude: Eat a lot of memories to resolve conflicts, and spend a lot of seconds.

[Kyuma Ohta]

Package: aptitude
Version: 0.8.11-6
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

In this version of aptitude, trying to install packages have conflicts
dependencies, spend a lot of time to resolve and eat a lot of memories.
Eats > 8GB of memories on resolving, and sometimes not resolved.
Not stopping resolving at this situation, and need to abort APTITUDE
(via CTRL-C).

Regards,
Ohta.
