Re: libc6 problem after apt-get

the following thing worked for me (tk told me the whole thing on #debian):

---
<tk> I downgraded the libc in the following order:
libdb2_2.4.14-2.7.7.1.c.deb, libc6*.deb locales_2.1.3-13_i386.deb, all the
files need to be downloaded locally. If apt/dpkg complains about ldconfig,
you need to download ldso_1.9.11-9.deb, do dpkg -x ldso*.deb foo && cp
foo/sbin/ldconfig.new /sbin/ and retry
---

Install the downloaded .deb files with
dpkg -i

you should be able to find most of files on
ftp://security.debian.org/debian-security/dists/potato/updates/main/
otherwise search in potato.

hope this helps!
