Hi! I saw the announcement [SECURITY] [DSA-048-1] samba symlink attacks http://lists.debian.org/debian-security-announce-01/msg00047.html and because apt-get was not updating, I downloded the SPARC packages and did dpkg -i on them
The result is here: dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of smbclient: smbclient depends on samba-common (= 2.0.7-3.2); however: Package samba-common is not configured yet. smbclient depends on libc6 (>= 2.2.2-2); however: Version of libc6 on system is 2.1.3-18. smbclient depends on libncurses5 (>= 5.2.20010310-1); however: Version of libncurses5 on system is 5.0-6.0potato1. dpkg: error processing smbclient (--install): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of samba: samba depends on samba-common (= 2.0.7-3.2); however: Package samba-common is not configured yet. samba depends on libc6 (>= 2.2.2-2); however: Version of libc6 on system is 2.1.3-18. samba depends on libncurses5 (>= 5.2.20010310-1); however: Version of libncurses5 on system is 5.0-6.0potato1. dpkg: error processing samba (--install): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of smbfs: smbfs depends on samba-common (= 2.0.7-3.2); however: Package samba-common is not configured yet. smbfs depends on libc6 (>= 2.2.2-2); however: Version of libc6 on system is 2.1.3-18. smbfs depends on libncurses5 (>= 5.2.20010310-1); however: Version of libncurses5 on system is 5.0-6.0potato1. dpkg: error processing smbfs (--install): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: smbclient samba smbfs The problem appears to be in libc6 dependency? --JS
