I had some troubles with the NVIDIA graphics driver some days ago
after i changed the way of installation of the NVIDIA driver back
from the "debian way" to simply running "sh
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-7184-pkg1.run".  That led to problems with
mythfrontend (mythtv). I had to explicitly purge the packet
nvidia-glx to remove /etc/init.d/nvidia-glx, because
/etc/init.d/nvidia-glx did delete files in /lib/tld after reboot.
After running "sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-7184-pkg1.run" again
mythfrontend runs without troubles.

I believe digikam crashes since around that time. But fixing the
graphics driver installation did not help.

Digikam also crashes when i install fam and libfam0.
I already reinstalled libc6, all files in /lib/tls belong to that packet.
