apt-0.0.16 and libc6-2.0.7r2

[Douglas Bates <bates@stat.wisc.edu>]

I haven't been following the discussion on the libc6 naming (too
little time, I'm afraid) so I may have missed any fixes to this.  I
have apt 0.0.16-1 and libc6 2.0.7r-2 installed.  I installed apt
before the upgrade of libc6.

Now the first thing that apt wants to do when you run it is to commit
suicide by removing itself.  Is there a workaround?

You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
Sorry, but the following packages are broken - this means they have unmet
dependencies:
  apt: Depends:libc6
