Rep:
And you have no idea, which Debian, you are using ?
Debian Sarge or Debian Etch ?
Other way to list and find installed packages
ls -tl /var/lib/dpkg/info/ | grep list > packages.txt \
&& grep libglib2 packages.txt
apt-cache search libglib2.0-0
dpkg -l libglib2.0-0 | grep -iA 2 version
dpkg -l libc6 | grep -iA 2 version
dpkg -l : the letter l is a lower case L.
Hopefully you can now tell the versions of
libglib2.0-0 and libc6
.....
P.S.: Today your logo shows 'Ubuntu' :
Could be, you have an old version of Ubuntu ?
