Javier Kohen just asked (I'm not subscribedto this list anymore, so I saw his post on google news) what version of libc6 I'm using. I _think_ (since dpkg is not allowing me to check) that I'm using libc6_2.3.2.ds1-20.0.0.2.gcc4_amd64.deb, although libc6_2.3.2.ds1-20.0.0.3.gcc4_amd64.deb was in the process of being installed (I'm not sure if it was unpacked yet or not).
And as far as backtracing the dpkg SEGFAULT in gdb, I had tried that, but as he mentioned, since there are no debugging symbols, there is nothing but memory addresses.
