[Netkit.users] Problem with libc upgrading

[Emanuele Corso]

I need a libc version >= 2.5
So I added to sources.list the line "deb
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debianunstable main contrib non-free"
and did a "apt-get update" and a "apt-get install libc6"

apt-get is going to upgrade libc6-dev and locales, and remove tzdata
but the update fails

This is the output:

Preparing to replace libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13 (using .../libc6_2.5-9+b1_i386.deb)
...
Unpacking replacement libc6 ...

dpkg: error while cleaning up:

Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.5-9+b1_i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


Anyone knows how to do this upgrade?
Thanks
