Yes, we get this bug happening regularly because the binaries on the image went through the library reduction process with a given libc (here 2.18), and later a different version of the libc is unpacked over it (here 2.17). Therefore some symbols are missings, causing the segfault. In addition I think there are also some version mismatches between libnss-* and libc6 when the old one is getting unpacked. > This rings some bells: > | eglibc (2.18-2) unstable; urgency=medium > | > | [ Aurelien Jarno ] > | * any/local-ldconfig-ignore-ld.so.diff: new patch to ignore the dynamic > | linker in ldconfig.

This bug is when you have multiple libc of the same architecture on a system (e.g. libc6:amd64 and libc6-amd64:i386, or libc6:i386 and libc-i386:amd64) > eglibc maintainers, can you please suggest further directions for me to > look into?
