Yes, this time (as opposed to a few releases ago), I made them depend on
just "libc6.1" with no subversion specified. They should install on all
dists. My tests on potato went very well. FYI, most of the binaries are
shared, but I believe are more reliant on the Compaq libs than anything
else (libots).
