Bug#551158: Libc6: exim4 Segfault in libc-2.7.so
Dear Aurelien, dear all, for unrelated reasons I had to reinstall my system and now everything works fine with the latest libc6. I suppose there was some sort of horrible conflict somewhere. Hopefully it won't be reproducible anywhere else. As far as I'm concerned, case closed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#551158: Libc6: exim4 Segfault in libc-2.7.so
Dear Aurelien, dear all, I was trying once more the upgrade to libc6-2.10.2-2 and I have noticed that when dpkg configures libc6, it spits out a message like: dpkg: considering deconfiguration of libc6, which would be broken by installation of libc-bin ... dpkg: yes, will deconfigure libc6 (broken by libc-bin). This is reported also here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/463983 but on ARM, while I am on AMD64. Any ideas on what it might cause this? Thank you, I hope we're a bit closer to the solution. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

For the ARM case, it's just that Ubuntu just decided to not support some ARM platform anymore and they didn't add a test to detect unsupported platform in the preinst. It's totally unrelated to the problem you reported. -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 1024D/F1BCDB73 aurel...@aurel32.net http://www.aurel32.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

I have upgraded my desktop system to 2.10.1-5 and everything works fine, while the laptop still gives the same problem when upgrading to this version. I also thought about a conflict with other libraries, so I made a list of packages installed and diff'ed the results from desktop and laptop. libpam-mount is NOT installed on either system, so I suspect the issue is not there. I think the best is that I share the diff between the package lists, but I cannot find a sane way of showing that: can you suggest diff switches to obtain the best output for you? In the meantime I have pasted the result here: http://debian.pastebin.com/m46af8077 On the left is the desktop (which works with libc6 2.10.1), on the right is the laptop (which does not work). Hope this helps, Fabio. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
