Okay, so I've brought this on myself. I was trying to install openafs-client, which seemed to require openafs-krb5, which seemed to require libc6 from testing. So, on my potato 2.2r3 machine, I downloaded libc6_2.2.3-9_i386.deb and did dpkg --install libc6_2.2.3-9_i386.deb. It seemed to work fine, and allowed me to install the other packages. However, now I get:
hm269-26876:/usr/src/deb# man man: error while loading shared libraries: libdb.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory and other assorted similar errors. So, I tried to revert to the distribution's version of libc6, but can't figure out how to do so. I tried: hm269-26876:/usr/src/deb# apt-get install libc6 Reading Package Lists...

Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution). hm269-26876:/usr/src/deb# apt-get -f install libc6 Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree...
