I'd just like to say here that you can opt not to install libstdc++-v3 |
| 13 |
and just keep a copy of gcc-3.3 if you want. I do because I sometimes |
| 14 |
need to compare the two versions when looking at certain packages with |
| 15 |
a view to SSP (-fstack-protector) compatibility. On the other hand, I |
| 16 |
spoke to one guy very recently who could not get one or two gnome |
| 17 |
packages on his desktop system to link to libstdc++.so.6 when |
| 18 |
upgrading although he swore that he had gcc-3.4.4 selected as the |
| 19 |
active compiler and everything seemed to check out. So I just told him |
| 20 |
to ensure that he was covered by libstdc++-v3 and remove gcc-3.3 then, |
| 21 |
lo and behold, the two packages built as expected thereafter. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Therefore I would suggest following due procedure here and then |
| 24 |
building gcc-3.3 again *after* if you want to keep it around for some |
| 25 |
reason ;) |
