Thank you for your report.

I pretty much guess the maintainers are aware of this issue. They know about 
the gcc 5.x transition. I know for sure that Lisandro knows about it.

Please allow the devs and build machines some time to complete the transition. 
Transitions like this can happen in sid and if many packages are involved it 
takes some effort and the time to bring forth that effort to make it happen. 
For example I see qt4/5 uploads with symbol updates, the last one from 
yesterday, short before 18:00 CEST.

So for the transition time just use apt-get upgrade only, until apt-get dist-
upgrade doesn´t want to remove any packages anymore that you want to keep 
(well I have gcc5 installed already). Sometimes it can be helpful to try out 
various solutions that aptitude dist-upgrade offers, but from what I saw 
yesterday there, its still just plain transition issues mostly around  
libstdc++6. Multiarch systems that have libstdc++6:i386 installed need to have 
the versions available in both 32- and 64-bit machine, so both buildd networks 
will have to have built the new packages.

I personally will not report transitional issues likes this unless they are 
there for some time and I think devs may have overseen something, but your 
mileage may vary. It may or may not help them to keep track, but in the case 
of something major like kdepim I am pretty sure they are aware of the issue 
and it is a little additional work for them to close the bug.

I just tried to give some context on what is happening here. If you know all 
of this already, please disregard.

Thank you,
Martin
