Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libc6

When doing an apt-get dist-upgrade the following results:

Preparing to replace libc6 2.4-1ubuntu12 (using 
.../libc6_2.4-1ubuntu12.2_i386.deb) ...
Matching libraries: /usr/lib/libpthread.so.20 /lib/ld-linux.so.2

A copy of glibc was found in an unexpected directory.
It is not safe to upgrade the C library in this situation;
please remove that copy of the C library and try again.
