You cannot upgrade it to another major version without upgrading half of your system. >> To me this looks like your new libc6 is very broken and now nothing >> using it (which is about everything) will work. But i might be wrong. Correction: I guess it isn't broken in any way, it's just that all your other programs are linked to an older version and don't work with the new one. > Basically I cannot exec rsync, scp > If I manage to get the old libc6, I used to have, and manage some how to > install it (since I cannot execute dpkg) it wil work (in theory)?
