I surely made a mistake trying to install 'audacity v1.3.8 beta'.

Since 'apt-get install audacity' told me that my already installed
1.3.5 beta version was the last version available, I decided to try
'testing' directories in my /etc/apt/sources.list. This and the
apt-get update being done, I renewed my attempt with apt-get
install. This time, it did start to install v1.3.8 of audacity. But
I encountered a problem ! Before the end of install process, I got
this message :
"

Do you want to upgrade glibc now ?

I replied 'no', and, so far, I have not attempted to continue this
install process of 'audacity' and the upgrade of glibc.

Ever since then, I am encountering problems and error messages when
trying to install something. For instance, if I do :
#apt-get install gphoto2
the install process starts... then :

/usr/bin/locale and especially /sbin/ldconfig are important programs
which are part of the libc-bin package. Your aborted libc6 upgrade seems
to have removed this package (and possibly others), or something is
wrong with your $PATH.
Please post the output of this command
dpkg -l libc6\* libc-\* | awk '/^[^D|+]/{print $1,$2,$3}'
so that we can see the status of libc-related packages on your system.
Here it is :
