I'm also suffering from this problem. As soon as the new glibc6 version was installed, locales and my blackdown j2re1.3 packages too. I can't install locales and j2re anymore! Maybe we should file a bug against the glibc6 package? Can someone fix this please!? Thanks! By the way, I have a security deb line (testing) and this doesn't help. -- Best regards, Manuel Bilderbeek -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
