Yes. You were all right. So...
I downloaded libc6-dev => requires libc6
(I had libc6 but in a newer version so I now need to downgrade it):
rulix:/home/eg# dpkg -i libc6-dev_2.2.5-11.2_i386.deb libc6_2.2.5-11.2_i386.deb
(Reading database ... 41367 files and directories currently installed.)

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libc6-dev:
libc6-dev depends on libc6 (= 2.2.5-11.2); however:
Version of libc6 on system is 2.3.1-11.
dpkg: error processing libc6-dev (--install):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
libc6_2.2.5-11.2_i386.deb
libc6-dev
Seems like another package is interested the overwrited file.
Should I force dpkg to install it ?
