Bug#369940: libc6 upgrade objects to my old a.out libc in /usr/local
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-22sarge3
Preparing to replace libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 (using .../libc6_2.3.2.ds1-22sarge3_i386.deb) ...
These libraries were found in /usr/local/lib:
libc.so.2
libc.so.2.2
libm.so.2
libm.so.2.2
A copy of glibc was found in an unexpected directory.
It is not safe to upgrade the C library in this situation;
please remove that copy of the C library and try again.
dpkg: error processing
debian/pool/main/g/glibc/libc6_2.3.2.ds1-22sarge3_i386.deb (--install):
subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1
...
-chiark:~> file /usr/local/lib/libc.so.2.2
/usr/local/lib/libc.so.2.2: Linux/i386 demand-paged executable (ZMAGIC), stripped
-chiark:~>
What exactly is the problem here ?
Ian.
