I've got most of the state of the libc6* (not libc*) packages still in the scroll buffer, but not all of it (this is literally the top of the scroll buffer): iU libc6-amd64 2.18-5 i386 Embedded GNU C Library: 64bit Shared libraries for AMD64 iU libc6-dbg:amd64 2.18-5 amd64 Embedded GNU C Library: detached debugging symbols iU libc6-dev:amd64 2.18-5 amd64 Embedded GNU C Library: Development Libraries and Header Files iU libc6-dev:i386 2.18-5 i386 Embedded GNU C Library: Development Libraries and Header Files iU libc6-dev-i386 2.18-5 amd64 Embedded GNU C Library: 32-bit development libraries for AMD64 iU libc6-dev-x32 2.18-5 amd64 Embedded GNU C Library: X32 ABI Development Libraries for AMD64 iU libc6-i386 2.18-5 amd64 Embedded GNU C Library: 32-bit shared libraries for AMD64 rc libc6-i686:i386 2.13-38 i386 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared libraries [i686 optimized] iU libc6-x32 2.18-5 amd64 Embedded GNU C Library: X32 ABI Shared libraries for AMD64 :) root@fsck->/usr/local/src/games # ls -la /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl-2.1* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14664 Nov 29 18:00 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl-2.17.so I could get the rest of the output, but it'd be from the working system, so I guess there wouldn't much of a point. Thanks for taking the time and trying to help me out. Kind regards, robert -- -- "You're lost in the maze of /usr/ucb and /usr/xpg/bin. An evil -- tset attacks you." - az about Solaris
