Package: libc6
Version: 2.37-3
Severity: important
Dear maintainers,
I've just upgraded to libc6 2.37-3 and now I have an almost broken
system. But broken in a very weird way: the graphical user interface
(KDE Plasma) is coming up, I can start big programs like Firefox,
Thunderbird, etc., but as soon as I go to a shell — it doesn't matter if
I'm inside or outside the graphical session, ie. tty2 vs. tty3 — I can
execute almost no program. ldd works, surprisingly gdb works as well,
but eg. man or apt-get or perl do not. They all end with
$ man apt-get
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Since gdb is working, I got a backtrace, even though that is not that
helpful, I fear.
$ gdb --args man apt-get

Perl was failing with a call to towupper().
The KDE session is also incomplete, eg. audio devices are no longer found.
During the update I saw errors towards the end (post-install scripts)
for libc6 (and some others, which should not matter here). Ie. the
post-install script could not be executed with the core
dumped/segmentation fault.
It also doesn't matter what shell I use, I've tried bash and dash.
This might be related to #1040140
reportbug is not working either, so you have to do without the
automatically generated system information, but I do try to reproduce it
here as close as I can.
Now I will try to downgrade my system and get it fully functional again.
Cheers,
Kai
