Hello, I'm using pure64 Sid. The current base-files package (3.1.2-0.0.0.3.pure64) pre-depends on libc6 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-20.0.0.1.pure64), libc6 (<< 2.3.2.ds1-20.0.1), so that libc6 cannot be updated from 2.3.2.ds1-20.0.0.1.pure64 to 2.3.2.ds1-21. This stalls the update of packages built against libc6 2.3.2.ds1-21, including an update of mozilla-firefox which fixes various security issues.
Can I just force the update of libc6 to 2.3.2.ds1-21 (by rebuilding base-files locally with a different pre-dependency), or will this cause some bad breakage? If I understand the changelogs of base-files and libc6 correctly, the only difference between the pure64 and official versions is the lib64 symlink. Is this correct? I don't care about LSB conformance and have no 32 bit applications. Does this mean I don't have to care about the lib64 symlink?
