I'm trying to install the latest Bind with Debian. That seems to end up
depending on locales which depends on glibc-2.7-1 when I try to install
glibc-2.7.1, that ends up advising me to install kernel 2.6. When I try
to install that, I end up again with a dependency on locales which
depends on glibc-2.7.1. I'm getting dizzy, anyone got a way out of this?

You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
binutils: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.7-1) but 2.3.6.ds1-13 is to be installed
g++: Depends: cpp (>= 4:4.3.2-2) but 4:3.3.5-3 is to be installed
Depends: gcc (>= 4:4.3.2-2) but 4:3.3.5-3 is to be installed
Depends: g++-4.3 (>= 4.3.2-1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: gcc-4.3 (>= 4.3.2-1) but it is not going to be installed
libc6: Depends: tzdata but it is not going to be installed
libc6-dev: Depends: libc6 (= 2.7-18) but 2.3.6.ds1-13 is to be installed
linux-image-2.6.26-2-686: Depends: initramfs-tools (>= 0.55) but it
is not going to be installed or
yaird (>= 0.0.13) but it is not
installable or
linux-initramfs-tool
locales: Depends: glibc-2.7-1
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or
specify a solution).

WARNING: POSIX threads library NPTL requires kernel version
2.6.8 or later. If you use a kernel 2.4, please upgrade it
before installing glibc.
The installation of a 2.6 kernel _could_ ask you to install a new libc
first, this is NOT a bug, and should *NOT* be reported. In that case,
please add etch sources to your /etc/apt/sources.list and run:
apt-get install -t etch linux-image-2.6
Then reboot into this new kernel, and proceed with your upgrade
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.7-18_i386.deb
(--unpack):
subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.7-18_i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Then if I run that, it requires I select a kernel from a list and then
we're back to the beginning again.
