Sorry about the duplicate mails, Marcus; I forgot to CC the group. I --force-depends'ed libc0.2-dev because I couldn't find gnumach-dev or hurd-dev. I don't think I should need the gnumach-dev package now since I installed gnumach from the source, which installed all the headers. I figured I wouldn't need the hurd-dev too for the same reason (and I don't think the hurd should need it's own headers, right?). I did a --contains on libc0.2-dev and didn't see any cthread.h in there. Where does the cthread implimentation live? Is there a separate lib or am I just doing something horribly wrong? Also, what version of the glibc source should I use if I want to compile it? <snip> FYI: Perhaps debconf wasn't added because of the dependency on apt, which was broken? Something about this was mentioned in the post where you said it was being added. Thanks, Jamie
