How many packages do you want ntthe line? Do you know how many
packages break? Why just libc6? Why not ever package breaking
every other package generate a plethora of conflict statement?
I think it is good for the soul to have a little inconvenience
once in a while.

I think so, yes. I think it is impossible to do this
absolutely right anyway.
