No way to get out of this situation?
i hit the same problem with my debian box. i try to install the new kernel
headers and it reports undone dependencies that should be solved via
apt-get install -f. running this command results in a message that says:
...[snip]
Preparing to replace libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13 (using .../
libc6_2.6.1-1+b1_i386.deb) ...
WARNING: POSIX threads library NPTL requires kernel version
2.6.8 or later. If you use a kernel 2.4, please upgrade it
before installing glibc.
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
i added etch sources and tried to switch to a new kernel, but again it
says i have to solve my unmet dependencies....
Given the presence of libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13 (or 2.3.6.ds1-13etch2, which is what
you should have if you're running etch), it's safe to upgrade your kernel to
2.6.18 and to use that.
Does your boot loader (lilo? grub?) know about the newer kernel?
