This might work, but that means the version number (the major version of libc6 and libc-bin must match) has to be controlled from libc6, while the binaries from libc-bin uses libc6, not the reverse. Also with this kind argument, we have a lot of "useless" dependencies on libc6 in the archive... In short, I am ok with this kind of solution, but I would prefer to make sure there is no other solution first. -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 1024D/F1BCDB73 aurel...@aurel32.net http://www.aurel32.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-glibc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
