Let me guess, you´ve upgraded some libraries to unstable for whatever reason, haven´t you? libc6/libdb2 are broken in a _very_ interesting way... I solved the same problem by installing ii libc6 2.2.2-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries and Timezone ii libc6-dev 2.2.2-4 GNU C Library: Development Libraries and Hea ii libdb2 2.7.7-7 The Berkeley database routines (run-time fil after _much_ messing ´round and installing some- and each and everything in various versions... If you need further assistance, drop me a line. cheers, &rw -- / Ing. Robert Waldner | <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> \ \ Xsoft GmbH | T: +43 1 796 36 36 692 /
