ok, i got libc5_5.4.33-7.deb from hamm, and here's what i got:

mattyt# dpkg -i libc5_5.4.33-7.deb
dpkg: regarding libc5_5.4.33-7.deb containing libc5:
 libc5 conflicts with libc5-dev
  libc5-dev (version 5.4.33-6) is installed.
dpkg: error processing libc5_5.4.33-7.deb (--install):
 conflicting packages - not installing libc5
Errors were encountered while processing:
 libc5_5.4.33-7.deb

...should i install libc6-dev 2.0.5c-0.1 first?

thanks,
matty
