Package: libc6 Version: 2.3.2.ds1-9 Severity: critical Tags: sid Justification: breaks unrelated software
After upgrading to libc6-2.3.2-ds1-8, the computer locks up while starting KDE in the Initializing Peripherals part of the startup. Up until this point, the computer functions fine, including starting X (4.3.0-pre1v4) and KDM. If I don't login through KDM, I can switch to a VT and am able to use dpkg to downgrade to libc6-2.3.2-9. I tried again with ds1-9, but had the same problem, so I again downgraded. I also tried switching to a VT after starting the login process from KDM. This allowed me to see a kernel panic occur, but it scrolled rapidly up the screen, and at the end of it there was nothing I could do but reboot. I am happy to upgrade to ds1-9 again to gather more info for you if you tell me how to do so. Everything on my system is from sid, except for the XFree86 from experimental. I am using the 2.6.0-test9-1-386 kernel. I filed this bug report against libc6 rather than kernel-2.6.0 since things work fine with libc6-2.3.2-9.
