Hi all

I recently tried to upgrade my box and I get the following error:


Retrieving bug reports... Done
(Reading database ... 149582 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace libc6 2.3.6-5 (using .../libc6_2.3.6-7_i386.deb) ...

Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.3.6-7_i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I have already tried using dpkg -x / to extract the files to their correct 
locations and then I ran ldconfig, but this didn't work since I got errors when 
I ran any command such as "unable to open libcrypt.so.1." I am able to 
downgrade to libc6 2.3.6-5 or lower without problems. However any libc6 greater 
than that gives me this error. The files /etc/libdl-2.3.6.so and 
/etc/libdl.so.2 both exist and the 2nd is a symlink to the first. I don't know 
what the issue is and I'd appreciate it if anyone could help. Thanks in advance

Rohit
