[oe] "opkg install ncurses-terminfo" needs 1GB of memory

[Tick]

Hi,
 What version of opkg and OE branch do you use?
Do you have the backstrace and log when opkg failed?
1GB should be much much more than enough for normal package.
The more detail description and information the more clue for me to
figure out what's going on.
Thanks.

Regards,
