I was able to compile all versions on a 'stable' system as long as it
was running the stable version of libc6. If at any time in the past
libc6 was upgraded to 'testing' or 'unstable' then there are apparently
issues with the compiler. The fix would be to upgrade the compiler
to 'testing' also. In some circumstances installing a newer libc6 will
attempt to remove:
The following packages will be REMOVED:
g++ g++-3.3 giflib3g-dev libc6-dev libstdc++5-3.3-dev libtool locales
zlib1g-dev
without replacing or upgrading them (I think not having locales would toast
a system) and under different circumstances it will not remove them
(and will upgrade libc6-dev and locales), but then you have to deal with
the apparent side effect of silently breaking the compiler (and
possibly even removing the kernel as mentioned before):
http://www200.pair.com/mecham/spam/kernel.html
I ran:
# apt-get -t testing install libstdc++5-3.3-dev
Which upgraded:
binutils cpp-3.3 g++-3.3 gcc-3.3 gcc-3.3-base libstdc++5 libstdc++5-3.3-dev
After this upgrade the compiler worked great.
The upgrade to libc6 can occur any time one chooses to install a
program from 'testing' or 'unstable' that lists a new version of libc6
as a dependency.
Mark, I appreciate the time you spent on this. libc6 compatibility
issues are a sore spot with a mixed Debian system. I will sure be glad
when Etch is out so we can put this stuff behind us.
