APT problem



I just tried to upgrade my Corel installation via the net and have some
strange behaviour when using apt:

feivel:~# dpkg -l libc6¸
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge
| Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed
|/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)
||/ Name            Version        Description
+++-===============-==============-============================================
ii  libc6           2.1.3-10       GNU C Library: Shared libraries and Timezone
feivel:~# dpkg --print-avail libc6
Package: libc6
[...]
Version: 2.1.3-10
[...]
feivel:~# apt-get upgrade
[...]
Get:1 ftp://ftp.corel.com corellinux-1.2/corel_updates libc6 2.1.3-10 [1904kB]
[...]

Could anyone please explain this to me? Did Corel do anything to their files
that makes apt think it has to upgrade although its up-to-date? Or is this
a bug in apt?
