okay so there is an issue with the optimized version of the library. touching /etc/ld.so.nohwcap tells the linker to avoid the use of optimized libraries. > Attempting the upgrade again makes the problem re-appear, and the upgrade > fails with the following messages: > > Setting up libc6 (2.7-3) ... > dpkg[3484]: segfault at 0000 eip b7d71f6d esp bfb11cfc error 4 > /var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6.postinst: line 357: 3484 Segmentation fault dpkg > --compare-versions $preversion lt 2.3.5-1 > > and two more segfaults in iconvconfig and update-rc.d. hmmm it looks a lot like #397020 that I thought was changed upstream, so maybe not.

Both are > self-compiled. are you using pax execshield or anything like that ? Given that you maintain it I suppose you do. If yes, could you please try with a stock debian kernel ? If it's because execshield then we'll downgrade the bug to important so that the libc can migrate, and as soon as it migrated we'll rework the patch used for #397020 and reinclude it. Cheers,
