Package: libc6 Version: 2.26-4 Severity: important [Reporting this from a different box.]
The latest libc upgrade again breaks openvz virtuals. On kvm/xen/bare you get a dialog asking whether you want to upgrade libc. On vz you get a notice about the (un-upgradable) kernel version but not the do you want dialog. Things which depend on libc6 get upgraded but the libc6 upgrade aborts. This leaves blocks apt from installing or upgrading *any* packages. apt --fix-broken install does not help. Even trying to switch to stretch fails. And the earlier 2.26 debs are gone from the mirrors, so downgrading to a working version is not possible either. I tried using dpkg to downgrade to the current stretch libc version but that also fails because it is only 2.24 and /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so.1 requires GLIBC_2.25. And that breaks all kinds of things, even some which have nothings to do with udev. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8)
