No doubt :-) That's just a sample libc 2.0.7 - 2.1.x mismatch (and I'd
have guessed sed doesn't suffer from particular problems). We need a Big
Fat Warning (tm) on the 2.2 install kit: use matching installer and base
tarball (or know damn well what you're doing).
But I'm happily installing single packages using apt-get now. Gotta love
Debian for that, especially after some RH experience ...

To whoever it may concern at debian-boot: the above error happens on
selecting either package list, task list or custom in the initial install
profile selection after first booting from disk. Or on pretty much any
action in pkgsel, for that matter.

I had to try once or twice (and especially kill the non-us and security
entries in sources.list), maybe a typo. It ignores Release but seems happy
with the rest.

Got everything (and with blazing 30k/sec). But I'll need more stuff for
building (debhelper probably, and dpkg-whatever). That should be fine from
any source. I'll install sbuild as soon as possible here.
