Bug#277611: libc6: upgrade complains about libs in /usr/lib



Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-18
Severity: normal


Hello,

When I upgrade the libc package on my firewall it complains about old
libs in /usr/lib and refuses to upgrade.
The libs it complains about are:
libdl.so.2
libm.so.6
libpthread.so.0
librt.so.1

Removing those symlinks makes the libc package installable again. However
the actual libraries in /usr/lib are not removed (they are part of
libc6-dev). So the next time I upgrade the libc package it will again
complain about those symlinks (because after the upgrade, ldconfig is run
which will recreate the symlinks...). 

I've filled a simular bugreport some time ago, but I couldn't find it 
anymore :(
