hi,

I've installed the libc6-xen on my dapper system from edgy, but now i
recompiled the libc6-2.3 to get it also running under xen, but i'm
unsure, what i have to do:

ii  libc6  2.4-1ubuntu12
ii  libc6-i686 2.4-1ubuntu12
ii  libc6-xen

after recompiling i get the following packages:

glibc-doc_2.3.6-0ubuntu20.4_all.deb
libc6-amd64_2.3.6-0ubuntu20.4_i386.deb
libc6-dbg_2.3.6-0ubuntu20.4_i386.deb
