Problem with libc6

[prueba1]

I have a machine with debian woody. After upgrade with dselect or apt-get ( 
this was a few months ago and I don't remember now if it was with apt-get or 
dselect) libc6 is half-installed. In fact if I run dpkg -C, I get: 

The following packages are in a mess due to serious problems during
installation.  They must be reinstalled for them (and any packages
that depend on them) to function properly:
libc6                GNU C Library: Shared libraries and Timezone data 

If I run dpkg -l libc6: 

Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold

|/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err:

==================================================================
iHR libc6                          2.2.5-11.1                     GNU C 
Library: Shared libraries and Timezone data 

The problem is that I can't install any packages... 

If I try install libc6... 

dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.2.5-11.1_i386.deb
(Reading database ... 15110 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace libc6 2.2.5-11.1 (using .../libc6_2.2.5-11.1_i386.deb) 
...
Unpacking replacement libc6 ... 

And the console hang. 

I open other console and ran "ps waux | grep dpkg" And then I get the 
following: 

root       542  2.1  5.3 14484 13660 pts/0   D    13:21   0:04 dpkg -i

You can see that there is an uninterruptible sleep process, and of corse I
canīt kill it. 

So I reboot the machine... 

If I try any update, upgrade or instalation I always get the same line: 

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to 
correct the problem 

So I run dpkg --configure -a 

And after this, the problem start again. If I try install, upgrade etc the 
console hang. 

Could someone Help me with this problem? 

Perhaps The only solution is reinstall the system completely? 

Thanks in advance.
