The current version of libc6 for woody is 2.2.5-11.5, mixed system, because I
already upgraded libc6 and a few other packages.
However, I had first an woody testing system. Then I upgraded the libc6 from
2.2.4-7 to 2.3.1-16 via aptitude, this was the testing release this time. But
everything run fine, beside the fact, using the praeprocessor for compiling a
program didn't succeed.. :-)
But the compiler did his job.
Now I did again this upgrade of libc6, also of libc6-dev and
linux-kernel-headers using aptitude.
Maybe, I've got the wrong version of gcc (2.95.4-9 now ) ?
