Dist upgrade wants to remove checkgmail and install libc6-amd64
(I am running the x32/i686 Version not x64)

The following packages will be REMOVED
checkgmail libcompress-zlib-perl libio-compress-zlib-perl
The following NEW packages will be installed
libc6-amd64
The following packages have been kept back:

libnss3-1d libpcre3 libperl5.10 manpages ntpdate perl perl-base strace

Ok, i did a update again and this time it does not want to remove checkgmail 
How do i find out what packages want to install libc6-amd64?
If I am running the i686/X32 must I worry that libc6-amd64 is being installed?

Not entirely sure, but I think
Code:
apt-cache rdepends libc6-amd64
does the trick. |

i dont know what pulls in libc6-amd64, but its not doing any harm here
dont worry about it
its just some compatibility lib .. seems for strace
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.de ... ral/463455
btw, i just googled 'libc6-amd64' and looked at one that seemed to have real info on it |
