The same happens here. Tryed to update from Kubuntu 8.04 to 8.10 and the upgrade tool crashed silently (after updating the apt sources.list file). Synaptic crashes, obviously. apt-get update crashes with the same "wow!.. " stuff . apt-cache stats returns the same error.
no results, after "cleaning" the sources.list (reducing the number of sources). So, at this moment, my computer can not be upgraded. -- E: Wow, you exceeded the number of descriptions this APT is capable of. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/280660 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
