Have you also had errors regarding 'libstdc++-.so'? You may not have noticed
them as these two tend to ride tandem.

Just 'been there, done that' and found that 'libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2' was
symlinked to libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.so', ~however~ that was ~after~
editing the symlink to reflect the actual so file. It turns out that the
original symlink pointed to 'libs....<2libc6> .....<2.9.0so>'. Those
excerpts in the angles are the ones that I changed. Now, no more complaints
about this library.

You may also find that your 'libstdc++-.so' is ~improperly~ symlinked.
