XMMS-WMA package problem
 
I downloaded the package xmms-wma_1.0.5-3_i386.deb and installed it from the command line because when I tried to do it by double clicking the package it said I had a dependance problem with libc6 but I have libc6 installed. SO when I installed it from the command line it installed but said there was a dependance issue with libc6. the wma playback works fine but xmms-wma is listed as a broken package and because of it I can't update my system. I listem to wma files all the time so I really don;t want to remove it... how do I fix this?...... thanx for all help in advance

well first try and locate where did your lib6 get installed, add the path to /etc/ld.so.conf
and run ldconfig.

Seems like you are running Stable and took the package from unstable which has a newer libc6 causing the dependency conflict. You may want to try purging the installed package (dpkg -P xmms-wma) then getting the source for it from unstable and building it against your installed libraries/development files.
