Never use 'apt-get upgrade' across different versions of the distribution: it won't make the right decisions.

Don't remove libc6! Upgrading it individually with 'apt-get install libc6' may help. > also, when I try to run something like man, I get the following message: > > man: /lib/libc.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.2' not found (required by > /lib/libdb.so.3) > > is this all part and parcel of the same thing??? That's slightly different; you need to upgrade libdb2. Cheers, -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
