Please help. I am relatively new to linux, and having trtied for several days now require some assistance.
My question relates to the installation of 'unstable' sections, into the Debian 1.3 system, where conflicts between the current 'stable' version 1.3 packages installed and the Debian 'unstable' packages. The problem I have is... I was examining the hamm (unstable) distributions and downloaded the Socks4 server package, and the libraries and dependants to go with it. During install I was warned that libc6 conflicted with libc5. A force manual install and configure merely, as expected, renders the system unusable as libc5 is removed, and much of the 'stable' system requires libc5. What is required to allow the installation of libc6 either with the safe removal of libc5, without crashing the system, or having the two co-exist on the same system, or cant the two be mixed ? How is it done ? I have searched the Debian web site but as yet can find no immediate answer.
