Trying to mount a smb share in Linux (12-10, kernel 3.5.0-17-generic) - I tried to install mounting utils
sudo apt-get install cifs-utils

libc6 is already the newest version.
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libc6 : Recommends: libc6-i686
Breaks: locales (< 2.19)
libnih1 : PreDepends: libc6 (< 2.16) but 2.19-10 is to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
me:
sudo apt-get -f install

Idk how to get around these errors... How can I do a simple operation like mount ?

New update - looked at install history - and the took a second look at the install above...

This is so incredibly weird - it seems that before running the command
apt-get install cifs-utils
I had all the correct versions of everything... yes old but functional...
I had libc6:i386 (2.15-0ubuntu20) and libc6-dev:i386 (2.15-0ubuntu20)
Then the installer upgraded to 2.19 and THEN complained that the version 2.19 is too high... And what is worse, it seems that my system is now broken and I will never be able to install anything ?
This is crazy because I had to put a lot of effort into installing specific development tools and sdks required...
I hope there is a way to DOWNGRADE libc6 ?
