nto the waters of testing or unstable you are about as good as you can get. You should install apache-ssl if you want to set up a secure server & especially if this is a production system. That will take care of your mod-ssl issues. Apache2 which is OK in unstable is MUCH easier to work with.

How to fix: glibc installed over libc6 broke system

2003-11-01 Thread John Foster
I did a real dumb thing without thinking. I grabbed a .rpm of glibc 2.3.9 from SuSE, converted it to a .deb with alien and installed it. Of course I forgot that libc6 is the debian way of handeling this dependency (see locales; unstable) Yeah it was VERY late. Any way it broke the entire system.
