  • Bug#265486: Upgrade breaks system

    From Simon Rumble@1:229/2 to All on Fri Aug 13 13:30:12 2004

    Package: libc6
    Version: 2.3.2.ds1-16
    Severity: Grave

    I'm no C guru but the upgrade to libc6 has SERIOUSLY broken things on my system, including dpkg itself. Ack!

    Recovery suggestions would be appreciated.

    .../libc6_2.3.2.ds1-16_i386.deb) ...

    Run 'tzconfig' if you wish to change it.

    Calm down, please. What architecture? What kernel version? What
    glibc packages did you install? Your information is too limited.
