Apparently, it's libc6's fault. According to IRC, the way to go is ;
* Downgrade to libc6 2.2.4-3 in woody (from 2.2.4-4 in sid)
* Leave screen alone - chmod 775 /var/run/screens; chmod 2755 /usr/bin/screen
Done (plus libc6 2.2.4 dependencies and a switch to en_AU locale), and
I've also added the joyous thing that is package pinning. mussel will
now only automatically upgrade to testing packages, but you can get
unstable ones with a simple ;
apt-get install foo/unstable
This is does with /etc/apt/preferences (man 5 apt_preferences) and
adding both testing and unstable to /etc/apt/sources.list .
mussel: /etc>cat /etc/apt/preferences
Package: *
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 900
Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian
Pin-Priority: -10
mussel: /etc>
