How do i explain to dpkg that some packages don't exist yet ? in particular
libc depends on ld.so who is not supposed to exist (or perhaps that is not
true i don't remember well) or libc-kheaders ?

?????? That seems a dirty trick, it is not the behavior i will have expected

Hartmut Koptein told me there is not supposed to be a ldso.deb on
debian/slink/ppc. it is already part of libc6. Who do i believe ? Also i am
not sure i can compile things on apus, not enough disk space (:<) at least
until i fix the scsi driver of the blizzard board.

is it a slink debian ? if yes, ui have been waiting since i first got my
blizzard board, if it is hamm based, it is nice, but somewhat useless
because based on glibc 1.99 also the link gives me :
550 /pub/Linux/linux-pmac/debian/mklinuxfs.tgz: No such file or directory.
i will look arround a bit.
