What removes it? I suspect it's not dpkg...

Problem is that I don't know when this happened the > first time. There is no command in the sample you provided and you used twice the same package ? Please give the output of: dpkg -I /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.9-24_amd64.deb Do you have weird commands in apt-get/dpkg hooks? Try running those 2 commands a few times in loop to see if you can really witness this problem with only dpkg: # ls -al /var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6.* # dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.9-24_amd64.deb Cheers, -- Raphaƫl Hertzog -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
