Hi,

        No, you can have libc4, libc5, and libc6 on the machine
 simultaneously. These are just run time shared libraries, and do not
 interfere with each other. There should be only one -dev package at
 one time. 

        Do not remove libc4 until you are sure there is not program on
 your machine that depends on libc4.
