For info, I've been hit by this bug a few days ago on amd64 (so this
bug does not seem to be restricted to i386).
It was on a mostly squeeze laptop where I tried to upgrade and/or install
all R packages from testing. Perl and libc6 have been pulled-in and I got
this error message. I "solve" it by disabling the APT option suggested by
the error message for this apt-get run.
As the laptop was not exactly squeeze (a few external repo) and as I
did not have too much time for now, I did not investigate more this
bug (nor I reported it with reportbug)
Regards,
Vincent
