Re: Will installing libc6-i686 on my i586 crunch my installation?

That was my question after all.

I would like to install "autossh", but apt detects some dependencies,
including some package named "libc6".
The package "libc6" seems to suggest libc6-i686, at least that what I
understood from your descriptions.

The big question is, will "apt-get install autossh" destroy my system,
by installing libc6-i686?
And if so, what can I do to prevent that and force it to install
another version?

Thanks, Clemens
