those would not run: Dump of assembler code from 0xb7eb4a73 to 0xb7eb4a87: 0xb7eb4a73 <_Z14ReadConfigFileR13ConfigurationRKNSt7__cxx1112basic_stringIcSt11char_traitsIcESaIcEEERKbRKj+2275>: cmp -0x288(%ebp),%eax => 0xb7eb4a79 <_Z14ReadConfigFileR13ConfigurationRKNSt7__cxx1112basic_stringIcSt11char_traitsIcESaIcEEERKbRKj+2281>: cmovne -0x1bc(%ebp),%edx 0xb7eb4a80 <_Z14ReadConfigFileR13ConfigurationRKNSt7__cxx1112basic_stringIcSt11char_traitsIcESaIcEEERKbRKj+2288>: lea 0x1(%edi),%ecx 0xb7eb4a83 <_Z14ReadConfigFileR13ConfigurationRKNSt7__cxx1112basic_stringIcSt11char_traitsIcESaIcEEERKbRKj+2291>: mov %ecx,-0x274(%ebp) Luckily, there were still versions 1.2.1 in the local /var/cache/apt/archives, I dpkg -i 'd them, so all is working for now... But I'll have to look for alternatives.
