Knoppix 6.2 CD - apt-get update, error

[Krazefish]

I was attempting to load the flash player (using LXTerminal Root) via "apt-get update" & received the following error:

What can do to increase the size of APT::Cache-Limit?

[klaus2008]

You will have to add a line like

APT::Cache-Limit "50000000";

to a configuration file of the apt program. I would create a new file called /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/11cache-limit with an editor.

The value of 50000000 is a guess. It needs to be greater than 25165824 and I made the experience myself that 50000000 will be sufficient. If you reissue the command

apt-get update

then you will see that the error has disappeared.
