Still doesn't solve the problem of the hamm libc5 conflicting with libc5-dev and the bo libc5 conflicting with libc6. It is a compilation of different breakages here. My concern is for people who still want to do libc5 development WITH THEIR NORMAL SETUP while installing a few libc6 packages. Note, I maintain the Debian libc5 to libc6 Mini-HOWTO, which is posted here occasionally and always available at http://www.gate.net/~storm/FAQ/ -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
