apt-get upgrade fails after updating
Hi,
Today, I did my routine apt-get upgrade and noticed that the libc has been
updated. However, now apt-get upgrade fails to configure the updated
package. The error message is:
Preconfiguring packages ...
*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (!prev): 0x0893e320 ***
/bin/sh: line 1: 6046 Aborted /usr/sbin/dpkg-preconfigure --apt
Setting up debconf (1.4.58) ...
*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (!prev): 0x088d9240 ***
dpkg: error processing debconf (--configure):

Errors were encountered while processing:

Full log is:
