Hi Aurelien, I certainly checked for any upgrade of the 'dpkg' package first, since s-s-d belongs to dpkg, however, dpkg is the very same version (1.14.25) as a 'working' system. among dpkg's dependencies, only libc6 was updated before the symptom appeared, thus my filing the bug against libc6. If the reason for you filing this agianst dpkg instead is pretty much obvious, please let me know wher I failed.
