Yeah, I never take a libc upgrade on its first day out. Just about
EVERYTHING depends on it and sometimes other packages must be rebuilt with
the new libc to function properly and it takes a few days for these
packages to "catch up". Since unstable is not designed to be a production
release, there is no (nor should there be any) requirement to submit
packages to the archive in any particular order.
The short answer is that this is what you have to live with when using the
latest development snapshots (to borrow a BSD term). It you are going to
live in unstable, it is to your advantage to read debian-devel.
