Bug#419481: libc6 fails to upgrade on AMD64 X2
Package: libc6
Version: 2.5-2
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
Trying to install the latest libc6 (2.5) I got the following error:
(Reading database ... 276412 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace libc6 2.5-2 (using libc6_2.5-2_amd64.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement libc6 ...
dpkg: error processing libc6_2.5-2_amd64.deb (--install):
dpkg: warning - old post-removal script killed by signal (Segmentation fault)
dpkg: error while cleaning up:
subprocess pre-installation script killed by signal (Segmentation fault)
Errors were encountered while processing:
libc6_2.5-2_amd64.deb
Actually, the kernel also complains with the following messages:
libc6.postrm[22812] general protection rip:2ba04325e395 rsp:7fff67980250 error:0
libc6.preinst[22813] general protection rip:2af3d0932395 rsp:7fffda2a9b80 error:0
