apparently, dpkg has a problem unpacking constructors_destructor_fn_imps.hpp within directory /sw/lib/gcc4.8/include/c++/4.8.2/ext/pb_ds/detail/bin_search_tree_/ yet, i've double checked that /sw/lib/gcc4.8/include/c++/4.8.2/ext/pb_ds/detail/bin_search_tree_/ does exist as a directory: [spip]<sw> ls -ld lib/gcc4.8/include/c++/4.8.2/ext/pb_ds/detail/bin_search_tree_ drwxr-xr-x 3 root admin 102 Oct 26 19:15 lib/gcc4.8/include/c++/4.8.2/ext/pb_ds/detail/bin_search_tree_/ and that the only thing it contains is: bin_search_tree_.hpp so i still see no obvious reason for which dpkg cannot create constructors_destructor_fn_imps.hpp out of gcc48-compiler_4.8.2-1000_darwin-x86_64.deb and put it in the right place. could it be a disc problem?
