Hi all, In an attempt to get the IPMASQADM package up and running I went and upgraded to libc6 2.2.3-9 (or whatever the trailing numbers are). Well now a heap of stuff has compatibility issues. I tried removing the new libc6 to reinstall the old one .. just to make sure that's what had caused all the problems, but I haven't been able to figure out how. DPKG, APT-GET and DSELECT all refuse to let me delete libc6 because of all the dependencies.
So is there an easy way to upgrade the packages that depend on libc6 so that they're compatible with the newer version. I tried apt-get upgrade apt-get -f install both of which did something, but didn't fix my problems. Any help will be much appreciated Cheers Stephen PS The two main applications that seem to have been affected by this mess are APACHE and GNOME/XWINDOWS
