Re: Hamm beta upgrade to Slink



I want to upgrade my libc from 2.0.7t-1 to libc6_2.0.7v-1.deb too. 
Can I simply install the appropriate packages, even if during the process 
parts of the system will be broken ? Is there a possibility that my system 
will completely be useless so that I will have to reinstall hamm from scratch ?
