Subject: wrong libc6 - ouch!
Dear fellow Debianites,
Tried to install a new (in "testing") version of flwm. It required a
newer version of libc6 and this caused a bunch of other dependencies
which dpkg and dselect didn't like.
So now my libc6 is .17 (should be .13 according to dpkg error message)
and is trashed. When trying to correct using e. g. "apt-get -f install"
I only get: "ldconfig missing". The install scripts exit.
What way is there to get out of this without reinstalling the whole
system (sob)?
Greetings,
Lucien
