    Just finished doing an apt-get update, upgrade and dist-upgrade using
    testing on a good functioning Woody
    2.4.18-bf2.4 system. Now as happened on a previous upgrade, my GUI wont
    open(CRT-ALT-F7 doesn't
    bring up the login screen). There is a bootup message that libc.so.6
    version GLIBC_2.3 depends on libc6
    version 2.3.? and is not installed or something to that effect. So I do
    another apt-get update and install llibc6
    and at the end of the install a message appears that says I should stop
    services(with your hands) on kdm gdm,
    postgresgl and xscreen saver and then come back and install libc6. Well,
    I'd do just that if I knew what was
    going on and how to do it. Please, someone enlighten me on how to get
    around this or point me to some explicit
    documentation that covers the situation. I'd be most grateful.

    Thanks,
    Leonard Chatagnier
