If you need a file (here you need libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2), you can find out in which package it is by doing a search at http://packages.debian.org -> 'Search the contents of packages'. I know there is also an apt-* command that does the same, but it is not present in stable and hence I don't know it... The result is: you need the libstdc++2.9-glibc2.1 package. http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?word=libstdc%2B%2B-libc6.1-1.so.2&searchmode=searchfiles&case=insensitive&version=stable&arch=i386 Francois. ===== Francois BOTTIN -- "How kind," the PFY sighs.
