Package: libc6 Version: 2.9-24 Ok, tried again and it seems to be that the first time it gets installed it exists. The next time it is removed and doesnt appear again.
So $ /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.9-24_amd64.deb would install /var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6.shlibs and $ /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.9-24_amd64.deb would not reinstall it. Problem is that I don't know when this happened the first time. --- System information. --- Architecture: amd64 Kernel: Linux 2.6.31-rc5 Debian Release: squeeze/sid 500 unstable ftp.debian.org 1 experimental ftp.debian.org --- Package information. --- Depends (Version) | Installed =======================-+-=========== libc-bin (= 2.9-24) | 2.9-24 libgcc1 | 1:4.4.1-1 Recommends (Version) | Installed =========================-+-=========== libc6-i686 | Suggests (Version) | Installed ==========================-+-=========== glibc-doc | debconf | 1.5.27 OR debconf-2.0 | locales | 2.9-24 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
