This is becoming a FAQ. You need the newest version of libstdc++, 2.91.59-1. If you are using the dpkg from unstable, you need to downgrade it to 1.4.0.31. For convenience, I've tarred up all the needed files: libstdc++2.9-dev_2.91.59-1_i386.deb libstdc++2.9_2.91.59-1_i386.deb dpkg_1.4.0.31.deb apt_0.1.9.deb and posted them at http://blevins.simplenet.com/foobar/ Download them and install them with dpkg. Then put a hold on your dpkg to keep it from getting upgraded (until a fixed one is on the mirrors). Hope this helps, -Mitch
