Bug#434522: Re: Bug#434522: gnome-terminal won't start
The box is crippled so bad that I cannot install anything. The wiki still runs I can still get a remote gnome session through nomachine xp. Random things crash like synaptic or apt-get. The install seems beyond repair. Whenever I get a chance I will have to temporarily move the wiki and reinstall Debian.

Are you still able to reproduce the problem with the latest glibc
(2.6.1-1 or 2.6.1-2)?
