Colin, Silly question, perhaps, but I'm very unfamiliar with how one monitors whether a known problem still exists. I have held off updating my Sid system because of the libc6 problem, but only because of messages on this list and the apt bug function (thank you to whoever put that in! :). I'd guess the above question about Gnome possibly falls under my question as well. What do people do to find this out? I noted the thread about the libc6 problem under the specific bug number, but is that where one would track whether it was fixed? Or is there a more concise way to do it?
