Package: libstdc++6-4.0-dev
Version: 4.0.1-2
Severity: minor
Hello,
the long package description of libstdc++6-4.0-dev, revision 4.0.1-2,
contains the paragraph
This package contains the headers and static library files
necessary for building C++ programs which use libstdc++. Be
advised that this only works with the GNU C++ compiler (version
3.0), and no earlier library will work it.
This description has two minor problems:
1) "this only works with the GNU C++ compiler (version 3.0)" is not true.
Compiler version 4.0.1 seems to also work. Given that the dependency
system will take care of this automatically this part should probably just
be removed.
2) "... , and no earlier library will work it." This doesn't make sense.
Maybe the meaning is "you need libstdc++-v3 for gcc-3.0"?
This part should probably also be removed, or otherwise should be
clarified.
I hope this helps,
Jochen
