Bug#321561: dlerror: /lib/libresolv.so.2: symbol __res_maybe_init, version GLIBC_PRIVATE

[simon raven <simon@nuit.ca>]

Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-22
Severity: important


downgraded glibc, since i was getting errors like:

Aug  6 06:35:02 pylon CRON[306]: PAM unable to dlopen(/lib/security/pam_ldap.so)
Aug  6 06:35:02 pylon CRON[306]: PAM [dlerror: /lib/libresolv.so.2: symbol __res_maybe_init, version GLIBC_PRIVATE not defined in file libc.so
.6 with link time reference]

and:

Aug  6 06:35:03 pylon CRON[306]: PAM adding faulty module: /lib/security/pam_krb5.so
Aug  6 06:35:03 pylon CRON[305]: PAM unable to dlopen(/lib/security/pam_krb5.so)

.6 with link time reference]

and other behaviour like nothing being able to open or stay running:

Aug  6 06:42:22 pylon nagios: Warning: Return code of 127 for check of service 'NTP' on host 'pylon' was out of bounds. Make sure the plugin you're trying to run actually exists.

holding the upgrade until i know what's going on.
