no, this was not the cause, and this can happen as well if the symlink is provided in the base package. > I recommend that the symbolic link be provided in gcc-4.3-base instead. I see that gnat-4.3 doesn't depend on cpp-4.3 (anymore?), however gnat-4.3 does recommend libc6-dev, which recommends gcc, so this shouldn't be a problem for the common cases. It's difficult to have gnat-4.3 installed without having cpp-4.3 installed, at least for the default gcc. Matthias -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
