dpkg: warning: 'start-stop-daemon' not found in PATH or executable
path should usually contain /usr/local/sbin, /usr/sbin, and /sbin
I have followed some guides from other people who had/have similar issues, particularly people using ubuntu. I have not been able to fix my issue. My troubles are most likely sitting with "libc6" and "libc-bin". My next try is to grab those from experimental but I am hesitating waiting to see if something will change. After all I am using buster. Has anyone else experienced this issue?
Merci.

Sounds like you have created your very own FrankenDebian. We can't help you if you don't let us know exactly what you did following the Ubuntu advice, though.
The easiest way to fix this would be to restore from your backup of the last known sane working state of your system.
obviously, you should try to install the packages conteining these executables, and/or check your path and/or check permissions (you are running dpkg with elevated privileges?).
also, these are just warnings.
something actually not working?

if you know this already, then you also know that you likely broke your system. or so i'm told: libc problems are hard to fix.

Steve, I did not add any Ubuntu stuff on my machine. I follow the guide without going outside of Debian packages.

Since everyone else that's running Stretch doesn't have your problem, I find it very hard to believe that you don't have a broken system. You installed packages from Debian testing or Sid on Stretch--is that true or not?
if you can link to or point to and explaination of why su - finds the command paths or why su -c'command' no longer finds them?
I can see some of my bash scripts possibly failing in the near future.

Sorry to disappoint but since I upgraded from Stretch to Buster I haven't played such games. I really don't need any package that requires downstream or upstream.

if you're running Debian testing instead of a release, you should make that clear in the first sentence or title of your first post; not leave it to be discovered ten posts in. I assume you're running a released version in the absence of that information. Not everyone is going to have read every single post of yours where you started using testing, either.

Steve, I did but I am guessing like all of us you read too fast. Check the last line of my original post.

OK, I missed that, but really, you should make it clear in the thread title or in the first line of the post that you're running a development version, not a released version.

Noted.
