Update base-files to 3.1.2-0.0.1, or downgrade it to 3.1.2. Except for the version number, they are identical; 3.1.2 has just been rebuilt as 3.1.2-0.0.1 to have a newer version number than 3.1.2-0.0.0.3.pure64. > Do I want libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20.0.0.1.pure64? or 2.3.2.ds1-21? > > What is the safest way to handle this transition? After you have installed the appropriate base-files version, just perform an upgrade as usual. This should (possibly among other things) update libc6 to 2.3.2.ds1-21.
