Re: libc6 (?) related conflicts involving emacs21 and other packages

[Charles Blair <c-blair@uiuc.edu>]

   Thanks for your continuing help.  In response to "aptitude keep-all" 
and to
"aptitude install -fsD" I got a long list of packages that "have been 
kept back".
No single item in the list seemed enlightening.

  The second command also gave as response:
*****************************
 0 upgraded 0 newly installed 0 to remove
would download/install/remove packages.  (but doesn't say which ones!)
*****************************

   Since the problem seems to be coming from libc6 and libc6-dev
packages that were taken from the Feb 26 .iso image, I am wondering
whether it might help to update these packages using the March 11 images,
which provided the emacs package whose installation seemed to create
problems.
