+ Starting with <systemitem role="source">glibc</systemitem> 2.26, Linux
+ kernel 3.2 or later is required. The <systemitem
+ role="package">libc6</systemitem> preinst has a check and aborts the
+ installation if it is not the case to avoid completely breaking the
+ system. That said it will leave the upgrade unfinished. Please update the
+ kernel before starting the system upgrade if the system still runs a
+ kernel before 3.2.
