um, couldn't you have tried this _before_ the release?

Any other messages? does the new post remove work or not? If not, whats the error? Check your /var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6.postrm (there should be two, dpkg.new and the "old" one?) and see whats failing.

Oh no, this is freshly installed just a few weeks ago since my harddisks died, but before that I switched from potato to woody. I remember it was a little painful, but I got it working somehow. What is the libc version you are trying to replace? Sorry, no potato system around, so I can not play with this. Maybe you find something useful on the woody page. Try playing with --force-depends or other interesting dpkg options. And when you found the solution, please report it here so I can add it to the woody page.
