Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libc6-i686

Upgrade from libc6-i686-2.7-5ubuntu2 to libc-i686-2.7-9ubuntu1 failed
with a segfault. This somehow left libc in an unusable state. Most
programs I try to run aborts with glibc errors like:

$ sudo synaptic
*** glibc detected *** sudo: free(): invalid pointer: 0xb7f96b28 ***
[...]

and

$ bash
malloc: unknown:0: assertion botched
free: called with unallocated block argument
Aborting...Aborted (core dumped)

Is there any way to go back to the previous version of libc6-i686
without using sudo?
