pkg consumes too much memory and finally it crashes with signal 6, abort. I have tried too many times without success. I've installed the newest development version with debug symbols from ports tree, it did not change anything.
I have just recently updated to FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE from 10.3-RELEASE probably because of this same reason.
The line in the file is:
And so, indeed memory runs out. I had to install more swap to overcome this issue, it did not help. The actual cause is the calloc, not the function. Am I right, the pointer if it is returned, is copied? I would replace the return line with &(*ptr) to be sure to point to the allocated memory only even after the segment changes (I should check this). This change did not do anything.

Many have found a resolution to fix this issue from gettext and gettext-runtime dependency as in the next links. Many have reported the same error, pkg has stayed in a loop for a long time and finally crashed without notifying the reason (ie. a dependency after reading the newsgroups and debugging).

I had found a bug report as well in an URL not found from above links. Some hints in posts were to remove duplicate rows from the database file with an SQL-editor.
My pkg crashes now almost every time when I'm installing a package. Almost every package (recent was lxde-meta, previous was probably texmaker, almost any smaller ones as well). What is the reason in my case? Do I have to update the database somehow?
How do I find the missing dependencies? It would be nice if the pkg would print lines to debug these issues instead of using all of the memory (2GB + 1,5GB swap here) and crashing.
Any other resolution before listing everything, deleting everything and installing everything again? (if this helps.)
