If you've forced another thread lib dev package into : installing, that would definatly cause you problems. You may want to : reinstall all of the affected lib and dev packages.
Hmm okay, but if I try to remove some packages (libc5-dev needs to be removed before libc6-dev can be installed), it complains about for example ncurses. Will ncurses still work when I replace libc5-dev by libc6-dev ?
