For .deb sizes ,I see eg tetex-texmf_3.0-1_darwin-i386.deb 148466600 gcc42_4.1.9999-20061219_darwin-i386.deb 120701440 gcc4_4.1.9999-20060617_darwin-i386.deb 92838746 For # of files, wc -l gives: 19104 /sw/var/lib/dpkg/info/tetex-texmf.list 4710 /sw/var/lib/dpkg/info/gcc42.list 4451 /sw/var/lib/dpkg/info/gcc4.list So on all accounts, if there was any problem related to the size of the pkgs, I would have expected it to have shown up since long at every replacement of tetex-texmf by a new version.. In addition, if it were size-related, I don't see how it would be "buildlock timeouts" that are concerned.. The only part of the error msg you show is > ### execution of /sw/bin/dpkg-lockwait failed, exit code 1 > Failed: can't install package gcc42-4.1.9999-20061231 it may be useful to see the preceding lines too to see what is involved..
