Hi,

I upgraded the base-files and libc6 packages (among a large number of
other packages) yesterday to the following versions:

  libc6       2.3.2.ds1-20.0.0.1.gcc4
  base-files  3.1.2.0.0.2.gcc4

However, I got the following error for libc6:

  dpkg: error processing 
/var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.3.2.ds1-20.0.0.1.gcc4_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite `/lib64', which is also in package base-files

Is /lib64 supposed to be in the libc6 or base-files package?

Has anyone else seen this?

I worked around it by manually installing the libc6 package with dpkg
and using the --force-overwrite option and then continuing with
`apt-get dist-upgrade'.

Thanks,
Per
