Err ... on March 8th, Anthony Towns wrote:
"glibc 2.3.1-14 should be entering testing "tomorrow" (sometime around 30
hours from now, depending on your mirror). Along with it, some 800 other

those of you running testing systems, please take care of the next few
days' upgrades, as a number of things *will* break.
"php4 will be broken on all architectures. This will be fixed by the
removal of the Conflicts: line from the libc6 packages in a forthcoming
revision. It can be worked around by not upgrading until that version of
libc6 is available; by upgrading to php4 from unstable; or by manually
forcing the dependencies (and not using apt).
As far as I know, the updated libc6 package has not yet been released; thus
upgrading php4 from unstable would seem to be the way to go.
(NOTE: I have not done it myself. Anyone have any real-life experience?)
