Public bug reported:

When I try to upgrade it used to say that it could not perform task
because there was a libc6 2.7 in a directory it was not supposed to be
in. I removed it and tried again. Said I had to remove the -new version
of the file, did so and still had the problem. Went to Synaptic and used
this to remove all the broken files all  240 of them. Did this and then
ran apt-get update and upgrade and the problem apparently is still not
fixed. I do not know how the glib file is getting placed into the
improper directory.

Thanks for your time and effort.
