@alfredo, you're facing a different issue than the original report. So
please don't reopen a closed report if you're not certain that this is
the same problem.

Now regarding your report, the cause of the failure is
====
Preparing to replace libc6 2.6.1-1ubuntu10 (using 
.../libc6_2.7-10ubuntu4_i386.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement libc6 ...
Replaced by files in installed package initscripts ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.7-10ubuntu4_i386.deb 
(--unpack):
 unable to create `./usr/share/man/man5/gai.conf.5.gz': No such file or 
directory
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.7-10ubuntu4_i386.deb
=====

Because everything relies on libc this means that your system is totally
broken. You can try to recover the system from a live cd .

Thank you.
