Cannot upgrade libc6 2.2.2-1 to 2.2.2-2: "error while loading shared libraries: /lib/i686/libc.so.6"
I have several Debian boxes (kernel 2.4.2 custom (kernels differ a little
on variouse boxes), ldso 1.9.11-15 on all the boxes). I was able to
successfully upgrade libc6 from 2.2.2-1 to 2.2.2-2 on two of the boxes,
but failed to on the third box. Here is the message I got:

Some errors occurred while unpacking. I'm going to configure the
packages that were installed. This may result in duplicate errors
or errors caused by missing dependencies. This is OK, only the errors
above this message are important. Please fix them and run [I]nstall again

Couldn't anybody, please, tell me what this error message means and how
can I fix the error.
Thank you, Mikhail.
