Potato -> Woody problem



Hello,

I'm a debain newbie and I have a litle problem when I try to upgrade my 
debian potato distribution to the woody one. More precisely, it seems that 
there is an error with 'cp' (unrecognized/invalid -L option) on the package 
libc6.1 (version 2.2).

The operations that I have followed are

- modifcation of /etc/apt/sources.list to integrate the testing sources;
- apt-get update
- apt-get -u dist-upgrade

The errors I catch are:

Any idea to solve this problem ?

Thank you,
