Look at the control info for libc6 again. libc6 CONFLICTS with libpthread0 version less than 0.7-10! This is so the, currently non-existent, libpthread0 maintainer can update the package to not conflict with libc6. To install libc6, you must uninstall the current libpthread0. FYI, libc6 conflicts with libpthread0 because they both provide libraries with an soname of libpthread.so.0. The libpthread0 package (for libc5) must be reworked to move its library to /usr/lib/libc5-compat. David -- David Engel ODS Networks [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1001 E.
