Debian's package of xine in Woody uses the Woody versions of libc6, zlib1g, and zlib1g-dev. > It didn't work out because apparently I had only changed some of those > libs, so I tried to roll back, got rid of Xine and all references to > any local stuff in my /etc/aps/sources.list which now reads: > > deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free Don't forget to include: deb http://security.debian.org stable/updates main contrib non-free Then occasionally do an apt-get update and upgrade any packages that need it. > The current situation is that dselect shows these conflicts: > > libc6 V2.2.5-11.2 zlib1g 1:1.1.4-8 (depends on libc6 > 2.3.1-1) > zlib1g-dev 1.1.4-1 (depends on zlib1g=1:1.1.4-1) The zlibg version is current for unstable. zlibg-dev is the version in Woody, and libc6 is the correct version for stable. > Yet the versions numbers it shows me are all installed version = > avail. version.

Just download (you might have to do that manually) zlib1g 1:1.1.4-1 and install it with dpkg. > I'm completely clueless now because on one hand my versions are > supposed to be the newest available and on the other hand the libc6 > version seems to be too low.. If your system were running unstable, zlib1g's dependancies would be met. -- Seneca [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
