Package: libc6
Version: 2.7-6
Severity: normal

Scenario: system migration. I am migrating from machine A (amd k7) to machine B 
(amd64). I have copied over *all* files except for /boot and selected 
configuration files in /etc, and I am now attempting to migrate the these 
newly-installed packages from k7 to amd64 binaries.

To do this migration, I use

aptitude clean
aptitude -o APT::Architecture=amd64 -f install

which will re-install packages for the new architecture.

Problem: during this update, after downloading the new debians  but before any 
packages are installed, I get the following error:

E: Internal error, Could not perform immediate configuration (2) on libc6

As far as I can tell, this problem is related to the libc6 package itself 
rather than the particular process I'm following.
