Package: libstdc++6 Version: 4.7.2-5 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
The debug symbols for this package should really be in a package named libstdc++6-dbg, not a different libstdc++6-X.Y-dbg package for every gcc-X.Y source package. The status quo makes the symbols hard to install, hard to upgrade, and hard to express a sensible dependency on. Also, I'm some of these packages contain debug symbols for copies of libstdc++ that were never included in any .deb, since the gcc-X.Y from which they were built did not build .debs for libstdc++6. For example, libstdc++6 version 4.4.7-2 seems to only exist for m68k, but libstdc++6-4.4-dbg 4.4.7-2 exists in wheezy for all release architectures (which doesn't even include m68k). -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.0 APT prefers testing-proposed-updates APT policy: (991, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-686-pae (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libstdc++6 depends on: ii gcc-4.7-base 4.7.2-5 ii libc6 2.13-38 ii libgcc1 1:4.7.2-5 ii multiarch-support 2.13-38 libstdc++6 recommends no packages. libstdc++6 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- Hi!
