[Bug 874030] Re: package libc6 2.13-0ubuntu13 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: package libc6 is already installed and configured

[Raphaël Hertzog]

The log says:
Preparing to replace libc6 2.13-0ubuntu13 (using .../libc6_2.13-20ubuntu5_i386.deb) ...

So you upgraded from 2.13-0ubuntu13 to 2.13-20ubuntu5. There's no way
that libc-2.12.1.so was a packaged file... at least not coming from the
libc6 package in version 2.13!

In any case, it's not a dpkg bug... so the bug was badly assigned from
the beginning. I'm reassigning to eglibc. But unless you can provide
some explanation on how those files came onto your system, I fear that
they won't be able to fix anything...

** Package changed: dpkg (Ubuntu) => eglibc (Ubuntu)
