(man 5 apt.conf),E:It happened a error while it was proccesed libglobus-gsi-credential-dev (NewPackage), E:Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.debian.org_debian_dists_unstable_main_binary-i386_Packages,E:It couldn't scan or open the list of packages or the state file.

"E:Dynamic MMap went out of the room."

Didn't you go out of room as the syetem tells you?
Do you have enough space on your disk(s)?

Try clearing the cache of downloaded files.

To do this, open a terminal and type this:

sudo apt-get clean

Can you help with this problem?
