For future reference, it's almost never a good idea to play with libc6 manually. If you have a package that won't install because it wants 'libc6 >= 2.3.1-16' or whatever, either rebuild it from source AGAINST YOUR CURRENT LIBC6, or upgrade your entire system to sarge/sid and run it there. I can't think of any normal situation where you'd ever need to upgrade libc6 with dpkg. -- Rob Weir <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Do I look like I want a CC?
