libc6_2.0.7v-1? (was: Re: Hamm beta upgrade to Slink)
[I probably should have included much of this in my post last night, but
I seemed to be dying of flu at the time...]

This is kinda the problem. :) Steve Lamb also suggested the same
thing, but this *is* the slink libc6:
gusgus:/var/tmp ] lftp ftp.debian.org
lftp ftp.debian.org:~> cd debian/dists/slink/main/binary-i386/base
cd ok, cwd=/debian/dists/slink/main/binary-i386/base
lftp ftp.debian.org:/debian/dists/slink/main/binary-i386/base> ls -l libc6_*
-rw-r--r-- 1 ftp ftp 612652 Jan 9 23:46 libc6_2.0.7-19981211-1.deb
Which I was working on this last night, I did think "hey, 2.0.7u-1 >
2.0.7-19981211-1", but dpkg did let me install apt with libc6_2.0.7-19981211-1
installed on the system, so I didn't worry about it too much.
Mark Wagnon posted a URL for libc6_2.0.7v-1 off of ftp.cdrom.com's
mirror, but that file isn't there this morning.
http://www.debian.org/Packages/frozen/base/libc6.html points to six
different mirrors, none of which have the file. I looked in
ftp://ftp.de.debian.org/incoming, but there was no libc6 there.
Ivan Moore suggested that I do an 'apt-get -f install' and letting apt
work everything out, but apt's solution to this is to uninstall itself:
gusgus:~ # apt-get -f install
Updating package status cache...done
Checking system integrity...dependency error
Correcting dependencies...ok
The following packages will be REMOVED:
apt
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 278 not upgraded.
Need to get 0b of archives. After unpacking 1068k will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] n
Any idea where the new libc6 is living? Thanks for all the responses so
far.
