Listening to some dood at http://www.debianplanet.org/node.php?id=880 I ran: dpkg -r libdb1-compat --force-depends=yes In order to "prevent" the "conflict". Now when I try to use apt-get I get: Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done E: The package libc6 needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it. When I try to reinstall: rulix:/home/eg/Packs# dpkg -i libc6_2.2.5-11.2_i386.deb (Reading database ... 40485 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to replace libc6 2.3.1-11 (using libc6_2.2.5-11.2_i386.deb) ...
