Use the one in unstable as I said in another mail. The only "problem" there could be is that you define Provides, dependancies or other meta information, that replace one of the core elements if you force it. You could make a packages that Provides and Conflicts libc6 and (maybe with a little --force) install it. With the next boot, you won't be able to start because of missing libc6. If you don't --force anything and think about what you place into the metaheaders, it will be all right. Ciao, Martin - author and maintainer of the new equivs package
