Hrmmm...
You are running 7.2? You are not going to be able to install packages from 
the 8.0 CD's. Make sure your system is fully up2date, and try installing 
packages compiled for 7.2. Make sure you are trying to install versions 
of apt and synaptic that are built for a 7.2 system.

If you're having a dependency problem with libc.so.6, then installing a 
new package is the least of your problems....
On an up2date 7.2 machine, I get:
# rpm -qf /lib/libc.so.6
glibc-2.2.4-31

whichcd is not part of the distribution, it's available at 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/whichcd/
To comply with truth in advertising rules....
It also happens to be my package. ;)
