[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#372738: libasound2 broken config by libc6 update

[Pascal LACROIX]

Package: libasound2
Version: 1.0.11-7

When updating libc6, after reboot sound server break, arts error.
alsaconf allways complaint by ending with config error.
observed this systematicly after a libc6 update either with previous
version of libasound2.

to retrieve sound fonctionning I find this solution :
- graphical server must be stopped
- libasound2 must be rinstalled
- alsaconf 
- alsactrl store

if trying alsaconf without stopping graphical server, my solution is
not working and I always obtain alsaconf complaining with config error

I am using kernel 2.6.16-2-k7

Libasound2 install or config should be keep when updating other package
like libc6.
