The current libc6 version of woody depends on nothing. But you
need to update locales. Also a package from glibc source.
However, you sholdn't update your libc6 if you have no problems
with reiserprogs. I did this bevore some months. All was fine.
But since i use Woody i saw: a Potato with libc6 of Woody is
much slower. Seems that the Woody libc6 is too new for Potato.
