It's going pretty well, really. :-)
****
The following packages are still linked with g++ 2.95 (!):
flashplugin-nonfree (presumably unavoidable)
queue -- bug 321184. Package not in sarge or etch, lots of unfixed bugs,
security upload for woody newer than version in unstable,
'barely works' according to RC bug 308403. Upstream is dead.
GNU queue is being completely rewritten from scratch upstream at
http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnu-queue/
xmovie -- bug 321187 contains the latest information.
****
The following library packages still need renaming for the C++ ABI change
(see http://people.debian.org/~djpig/gcc-transition/, among others):
log4cpp -- the new maintainer *still* needs a sponsor for his upload;
see bug 303794
postgis -- I believe it was concluded that this was a private plugin
and shouldn't export a library package
sp-gxmlcpp -- bug 333885, bug 340743 should be fixed at the same time
wfnetobjs -- bug 332832, delays wflogs transition
xdb -- bug 332835, delays oleo transition
***
And the following library packages haven't built in c2 versions on
all architectures, and therefore prevent other packages from
transitioning:
pdfkit.framework -- m68k (blocks viewpdf.app, gworkspace.app)
mozart -- m68k, s390 (blocks mozart-stdlib, mozart-gtk)
ivtools -- arm, hppa, m68k, mips, mipsel, s390, sparc,
but see below, needs to undergo c2a transition too
kdemultimedia -- m68k, but needs rebuild for c2a transition anyway
kdebindings -- m68k, but needs rebuild for c2a transition anyway
***
There are too many applications built with g++ 3.3 to worry about
getting all of them until we finish the libraries. :-P

C++ allocator change (see

I haven't even tried to think about the packages which need a rebuild to
pick up the c2a dependencies. Perhaps the best way to do that is with
a page like http://people.debian.org/~mfurr/gxx/uninstallable.html.
Unfortunately that won't catch these; we need the equivalent for packages
which depend on a package which existed before Nov 17, when the c2a transition
started. Such a page would be a very good idea.
