there is at present a problem with python2.2 on debian, unstable dist.

there are dependency issues.

gcc 3.3 is now the latest for unstable.

gcc 3.3 contains a package libstdc++-5.

python2.2 is compiled with gcc 3.2.

installing the latest libstdc++-5, which is compiled with gcc 3.3,
causes python2.2 to complain:

/usr/lib/libgcc1_s.so.1 cannot find GCC_3.3 in libstdc++-5.

i thought you should know.

l.

p.s. it's not the only program affected by the broken libstdc++-5.

expecting email to be received and understood is a bit like
picking up the telephone and immediately dialing without
checking for a dial-tone; speaking immediately without listening
for either an answer or ring-tone; hanging up immediately and
then expecting someone to call you (and to be able to call you).
--
every day, people send out email expecting it to be received
without being tampered with, read by other people, delayed or
simply - without prejudice but lots of incompetence - destroyed.
--
please therefore treat email more like you would a CB radio
to communicate across the world (via relaying stations):
ask and expect people to confirm receipt; send nothing that
you don't mind everyone in the world knowing about...
