Hello: After some nice chat at #debian I think I understood the problem. sysprof requires libbfd, but it's very tightly tied to the version of it, so it requires to compile against exactly yhe same version of libbfd that is everytime on the Debian archive.
libbfd belongs to the binutils package, so everytime binutils is changed, sysprof should be rebuilt and uploaded again. Meanwhile you could do the following in order to get the package build yourself(against your actual binutils): apt-get source sysprof cd sysprof-<version> dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot Notes: to do this you need fakeroot, binutils-dev and libglade2-dev amongst others. You may look for info on how to build a package yourself. HTH -- Raúl Sánchez Siles
