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.
