canceling apt-get install

[Rick Pasotto <rick@niof.net>]

I'm basically keeping up2date with testing. 'apt-get upgrade' wants
to upgrade libc6 but the upgrade wants to first stop gdm. I did an
'apt-get install' of only a few programs but evidently one or more
of them depended on the new libc6.

Two questions:

1) Will stopping gdm kill my X session that I'm running apt-get in?
2) How do I tell apt-get that I *don't* want to upgrade libc6 just now?
   It insists on doing so and I can't install anything else in the mean
   time.
