Package: libc6 Version: 2.9-18 Severity: important When installing libc6 from unstable on lenny multiple important programs SEGFAULT. Among them are cups and update-menus.
To reproduce install libc6, libc6-dev, libc6-i386, libc6-dbg and locales from sid on lenny and try running update-menus with any parameters. To examine the problem further I rebuilt update-menus from source with "-g -O0" and ran it in gdb with the following result: (gdb) run Starting program: /home/alve/menu/menu-2.1.41/update-menus/update-menus Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x0000000000000000 in ??
