Package: base

I am trying to move from using 'stable' to using 'testing'. However, I 
have a showstopper
in that libc6 is dependent in libdb2, which in turn is dependent on libc6.

The packages in unstable are the same versions as the ones in testing, 
so the problem
does not seem to be fixed later.
