Re: Woody broke my system
So, after my last post (where I tried to revert to stable's libc6 and ldso), I
do a new apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade, I get:
Reading Package Lists...
Building Dependency Tree...
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
cpp: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.1.93) but 2.1.3-10 is installed
exim: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.1.94) but 2.1.3-10 is installed
g++: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.1.93) but 2.1.3-10 is installed
gcc: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.1.93) but 2.1.3-10 is installed
ldso: PreDepends: libc6 (>= 2.1.94) but 2.1.3-10 is installed
libc6-dev: Depends: libc6 (= 2.1.94-1) but 2.1.3-10 is installed
libdb2: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.1.93) but 2.1.3-10 is installed

libxaw6: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.1.93) but 2.1.3-10 is installed

locales: Depends: libc6 (= 2.1.94-1) but 2.1.3-10 is installed
xserver-common: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.1.93) but 2.1.3-10 is installed
Okay, so I do the -f install thing.
Reading Package Lists... Done

Correcting dependencies... Done

Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

Uh...

Can somebody help me get this stuff working again? I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks!
