Package: libc6
Version: 2.31-13
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I tried to upgrade from old-stable to stable on an LXC guest running on
an ASUS NAS (underlying "ADM" OS) and got blocked during preinst :
Preparing to unpack .../libc6_2.31-13+deb11u2_amd64.deb ...
/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst: 105: [: Illegal number:
/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst: 9: /var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst:
arithmetic expression: expecting primary: "5 * 10000 + 4 * 100 + "
dpkg: error processing archive
/var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.31-13+deb11u2_amd64.deb (--unpack):
new libc6:amd64 package pre-installation script subprocess returned
error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.31-13+deb11u2_amd64.deb
It appears a workaround is to create a fake uname script in
/usr/local/bin that will report 5.4.0 (for instance) instead of the
5.4.x which is returned by uname -r in this Debian guest (why the NAS
maintainers have such numbering of kernels... who knows).
This was discussed in french on
https://debian-facile.org/viewtopic.php?id=25401 but I though this might
deserve a proper bug report.
I guess this wouldn't be too hard to fix in the preinst script, but
haven't checked the code.
Dunno which side effects might depend on having .0 in the end, but
appart that, the upgrade went smoothless.
Hope this helps,

[ Aurelien Jarno ]
* debian/patches/git-updates.diff: update from upstream stable branch
(Closes: #930697):
- Add more integrity check to malloc() function.
- Fix crash in _IO_wfile_sync.
- Fix bad free() in libdl if dlerror() is not used. Closes: #953257.
- Fix overflow in glibc.malloc.tcache_count tunable.
- Fix old x86 applications crash on exit() under valgrind.
- Remove copy_file_range emulation. The kernel interface has at evolved
and the glibc emulation doesn't match it anymore, so it's better for
it to return -ENOSYS. This only impacts Linux kernels << 4.8.
- Avoid lazy binding of symbols that may follow a variant PCS on arm64, to
support binaries using AdvSIMD and SVE vector calls.
- Fix large mmap64 offset for the N32 ABI on mips/mipsel/mips64el.
- Improve string functions performances on arm64.
* debian/patches/any/git-libio-stdout-putc.diff: refresh.
* debian/debhelper.in/libc.preinst: simplify the version comparison by only
comparing the two first parts, now that kernel 2.X are not supported
anymore. Closes: #1004861.
* debian/debhelper.in/libc.preinst: drop the check for kernel release > 255
now that glibc and preinstall script are fixed. Closes: #987266.
