In potato, it was in the ldso package. In woody it has moved to libc6.
It sounds like you're trying to downgrade from woody's libc6 to
potato's, where this can be a problem. You may have difficulty getting
ldso reinstalled due to this. If so, try 'dpkg --force-bad-path -i
ldso_1.9.11-9_i386.deb'. Then reinstall libc6 with dpkg, and continue
from there.

Not at all, downgrading can be a bit of a mess sometimes ... although
it's technically possible, it's not very well supported.
