Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: libpam-umask
When trying to install libpam-umask on "Hardy Heron" (as suggested by
the comment in /etc/login.defs), apt-get wants to deinstall essentially
the entire system. libpam-umask "Depends: libc6 (>= 2.4-1)", but the
installed version (2.7-10ubuntu3) seems not to be recognised as greater
than v2.4-1.
bash$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 8.04.1
Release: 8.04
bash$ apt-cache policy libpam-umask
libpam-umask:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 0.04
Version table:
0.04 0

I expected "sudo apt-get install libpam-umask" would install, purhaps
also installing one or two other packages it may depend on.
What happens instead:
bash$ sudo apt-get install libpam-umask
