Yes, there was a transition plan for C++ which urged developers to recompile quickly their packages for the new ABI. You may want to search the debian-devel-announce list for the transition mail. And yes, there are still some packages that are not recompiled or have not yet entered the testing distribution. I am not aware of any uptodate overview about which packages still lack the proper C++ ABI. But all of these packages should have bug reports. You can look up bugs quickly at http://bugs.debian.org/<package name> Thanks anyway for your report, and welcome to the Debian information djungle 8) ciao, Bastian - -- .~.
