Hi Santiago, thanks for reporting this. Actually this is an interesting case because the Vagrant VM I use for my Debian work only has a single core, 2GB of RAM and 2GB swap -- and obviously I have been able to build SPAdes on it. For testing, I have reduced the amount of RAM to 1GB:
$ free -h total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 996M 59M 683M 160K 253M 794M Swap: 1.7G 62M 1.6G […] > To reproduce please try to build this on a single-CPU machine having > 2 GB of RAM and 2 GM of swap. Indeed I am unable to reproduce this on my small VM. Building succeeds for me, see attached build log (done with cowbuilder instead of sbuild though). Looking at the error message, it looks like something in the after-build tests fails, and TBH my first guess wouldn’t be low memory at first either. I wonder if you would be able to help by trying a rebuild on your low memory machine to confirm the build failure happens reproducibly for you in low memory conditions? Cheers Sascha
