You can work around the issue by modifying the .deb (unpack, remove the
check, repack).

    $ mkdir -p new old/DEBIAN
    $ dpkg-deb -x /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_*.deb old/
    $ dpkg-deb -e /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_*.deb old/DEBIAN
    $ nano old/DEBIAN/preinst # remove "exit 1" in the `if [ "$kernel_rev" -ge 
255 ]` block around line 150
    $ dpkg-deb -Z xz -b old/ new/
    $ dpkg -i new/*.deb

This worked for me on Ubuntu Touch on Android.
