What version of the bootdisks do you have ?
You shouldn't need to upgrade libc5 after a fresh instal... You probably have
something very wrong.
I'd suggest getting a new set of bootdisks and restarting from scratch.

Phil is on the right track. libc5... is a base package and gets
installed during the base system. the other thing you could try is to
dpkg --help and take a look at the force and remove options. try not to
install base packages as much as possible.
