This means that if you want to install the spamc from unstable (which you must to satisfy the Depends: for spamassassin) you have to upgrade libc6 as well. I run Sid on one of my boxes, without any real problems, but I wouldn't want it running on a mail server. I found it much easier to backport for Woody than to mix distros like this, but YMMV. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | Support Mental Health.
