That's a perl syntax error, probably in the scripts that
handle the triggers run against libc-bin.

Check http://bugs.debian.org for libc-bin and libcrypt20 to see if anyone has
reported it.

Check out the sources, and grep through them for '$fn', find
the code, and fix the syntax error (or ask for help at that point.)

If you need it urgently, compile the library by hand. You
may also like to review the patches debian applies
to this critical infrastructure component.

have fun!
