#*** Problems
#*****************************
Package libc6_2.3.2.ds1-10_mipsel.deb refused to install.
After several trials in order to fix the problem (and restore the apt
funcionality) I forced an dpkg-deb -x to /.
Nothing worked anymore.
Tar refuses to work, commands like ls showed strange behaviour:
Look at permissions on files:
cobalt:~# ls -la /bin/ls
-x 1 root root 80152 Mar 18 2002 /bin/ls
cobalt:~# ls -la /bin/ls

Segmentation fault

Booting with rescue image and overwriting with old
libc6_2.2.5-11.5_mipsel.deb solved the problem.
All testing distribution of Debian on mipsel is corrupted and unusable.

Bzzzt. No sympathy.
*Never* do that. If it doesn't install, there's a reason. If you
overcome the safeguards, your system will break. This is not a bug.
Please file a new bug with information about why it refused to install,
including specific error messages.
Tks,
Jeff Bailey
