upgrade problem
Hi all
yesterday I tried to install gnut (testing) on my potato server. Now
I believe that was a mistake...
apt-get wanted to install a couple of replacement libraries libc6,
perl, I have no transcript :( . I said "Go for it" and apt-get
got hung up.

perl: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.2' not found (required by /lib/libdb.so.3)
E: Sub-process /usr/sbin/dpkg-preconfigure --apt returned an error code (1)

I think the main problem is here (third to last line):
perl: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.2' not found (required by /lib/libdb.so.3)
In fact, I get the same message when just issuing the command "perl" itself. Perl
is not running any more, which also means, for example, that my syslogd has a problem,
as I noticed this morning.

eckehaat:~# dpkg --audit
The following packages have been unpacked but not yet configured.
They must be configured using dpkg --configure or the configure
menu option in dselect for them to work:
libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 The GNU stdc++ library
g++ The GNU C++ compiler.
g++-2.95 The GNU C++ compiler.
perl-5.005-suid Transitional package.
cpp-2.95 The GNU C preprocessor.
gcc-2.95 The GNU C compiler.
perl-modules Core Perl modules.
binutils The GNU assembler, linker and binary utilities.
cpp The GNU C preprocessor.
perl-5.005 Transitional package.
locales GNU C Library: National Language (locale) data [support]
gcc The GNU C compiler.
libdb2 The Berkeley database routines (run-time files).

So I have a bunch of non-configured packages

But dpkg doesn't get them straight.
I'm stuck... How do I get perl to work again?
