[Bug 1253646] Re: autoremove removed libc

[Kai Mast]

Okay after I restored /lib64 my system works again.

It still suggests removing the file, though!

The following package was automatically installed and is no longer required:
  libc6-amd64:i386
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove it.

In my opinion APT should NEVER allow to remove any libc-package...

** Also affects: eglibc (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided

** Summary changed:

- autoremove removed libc
+ autoremove removes libc

** Summary changed:

  I just did apt-get autoremove on my trusty system and it removed some
  libc packages. I thought they were some old versions and trusted
  autoremove, but now my system is completely broken...
