Broken libc6 makes system unbootable when I install packages via apt-get
I tried to install Skype on my amd64 Debian 7, after believing the page that told me to upgrade libc6 and allow the x86 architecture. When I started downloading such packages and upgrading libc6 my system broke and at boot I kept getting this message:Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-close.c: 743: _dl_close: Assertion map >l_init_called' failed!
(Which happens to be the same one when I type /lib/libc.so.6 on the terminal)
I used a rescue disk, erased all the x86 packages and deleted the x86 architecture but if I install something from apt-get, the system breaks again and the OS wont boot until the ld.so.cache file is deleted.
If ldd --version is run on the terminal the output is: ldd (Debian EGLIBC 2.13-38+deb7u6) 2.13
What should I do in order to be able to install packages again via apt-get without having to rescue the system each time afterwards?

My advice would be to do a total reinstll as you broke part of your toolchain

On Debian 7 amd64 [Wheezy] I manually installed TFTP using dpkg. By mistake I installed libc6-udep version 2.19 besides having libc6 2.13 [stable for wheezy] installed.
After that I encountered same problems; apt-get broke system with exact same message.
With the Synaptic package mgr I removed libc6-udep 2.19 which solved the error for me.
