This has turned out to be an issue with libstdc++6 which comes from the gcc-6 package which was built with a broken version of binutils. The buildds are currently building a fresh gcc-6 package which is being built with a fixed version of binutils which should mitigate the problem. For anyone experiencing the issue, here is a quick workaround to fix apt for the time being until the buildds have finished building the new gcc-6 package (which should be in around 2-3 hours). Fix: $ wget http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian-ports/20161022T004918Z/pool-sparc64/main/g/gcc-6/gcc-6-base_6.2.0-9_sparc64.deb \ http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian-ports/20161022T004918Z/pool-sparc64/main/g/gcc-6/libstdc%2B%2B6_6.2.0-9_sparc64.deb $ dpkg -i gcc-6-base_6.2.0-9_sparc64.deb libstdc++6_6.2.0-9_sparc64.deb Once gcc-6_6.2.1-3 has finished building on sparc64 here [1], it should be safe to dist-upgrade the machine again. Please let us know when you encounter any other issues. Adrian > [1] https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=gcc-6&suite=sid -- .''`.
