As below , usually worthwhile syncing to testing prior to moving to
unstable if you have anything aside a relatively minimum install ,
unstable is quite often in flux , that way you get things up to a
"currentish" level prior to making the big step .

I'm afraid you've borked the installation with your apt-get remove.
The new dependencies mean that it's trying to install 'new' packages,
which it can't `cos you've got an 'old' kernel.
Either
1) Fix up your packages by pointing to unstable for a while. Then
point back to unstable & make a new kernel your first apt-get install.
2) Grab a vanilla kernel, install that, then continue below.

Umm, no. It's the actual kernel that you are running that is stopping
the libc6 installation, it's not strictly a dependency (from the message
it reads that way anyhow).
