Package: lib32stdc++6 Version: 4.5.2-4 Severity: normal When I was trying to make a 32-bit shared library on a 64-bit machine, the linker complained about not being able to resolve -lstdc++.
lib32stdc++6 provides the library libstdc++.so.6.0.14 and the logical link libstdc++.so.6, which points to the library. Unfortunately, this seems not to be good enough for the linker. After I manually generated a new logical link libstdc++.so, which points to libstdc++.so.6, the linker was able to resolve -lstdc++. I did not think of this on my own but got the idea from http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2086072/linking-using-g-fails-searching-for-lstdc Apparently, someone else has seen this problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.37-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages lib32stdc++6 depends on: ii gcc-4.5-base 4.5.2-4 The GNU Compiler Collection (base ii lib32gcc1 1:4.5.2-4 GCC support library (32 bit Versio ii libc6-i386 2.11.2-13 Embedded GNU C Library: 32-bit sha lib32stdc++6 recommends no packages. lib32stdc++6 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information This message and any enclosures are intended only for the addressee.
