don't know. It got pulled into my system at some point. its libc6 optimized for i686 arch. and pre-depends on libc6, so i assume its okay for my little world here (amd athlon chip). > > i assume this means i'm running 'etch'. yup. so if it were my machine, I'd remove the stable references in sources.list and then put them back in again later when etch is released. you are not running stable, so there is no point in pulling down the archive information. but that' sup to you. its not any harm. like I said though, at some point, you'll want to change etch to stable (after the release) so you don't follow it into oldsable and subsequent oblivion.
