Package: libc6
Version: 2.23-5

Quite some 3rd party packages expect symbolic links ld-lsb*.so.* to the
dynamic linker/loader. (E.g., on amd64, google-earth won't start on
stretch unless /lib64/ld-lsb-x86-64.so.3 is a symlink to
/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2). These symlinks used to be installed by package
lsb-base, which has been removed from stretch. Please provide the
symlinks that came with lsb-base with libc6, to keep these 3rd party
packages running.

These symlinks have been reintroduced in the lsb-compat package, where
they actually belong too. I am therefore closing this bug on the glibc
side.
