Looks like the check in the postinst is not good enough, it only checks for free memory, but my lack of memory is through policy, not restrained resources. You could run 'ulimit -v' to find out how much memory is available. It would be better to simply modify Java to not totally suck, but there's only so much you can do with this proprietary crap. :) -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (530, 'testing'), (520, 'unstable'), (510, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
