Package: gcc-3.3 Version: 1:3.3.5-5 Severity: critical Justification: breaks unrelated software
It is possible to have various versions of gcc&co installed, though none of the packages use the alternative system but a couple of unrelated symlinks in /usr/bin. Thus, these symlinks get overwritten on every update. eg i have gcc-3.3 and gcc-3.4 installed currently, with 3.4 as default. With the last update of gcc-3.3 all my symlinks got overwriten. This should be denfintily fixed and done the correct way.
