	Yes, that's one point where the names can be misleading. The
	right name for the package is libc6.

	To discover the version you have installed, use the command
	"dpkg --status libc6" and see the version it prints.

	If you are using a recently updated woody, then you should
	already have glibc 2.2.5, which means you can go ahead and
	install the program.


	Hope this helps, Roger...
