This will probably qualify me as a newbie, but
here it goes anyway...
I have been keeping my system updated to unstable,
and for a few weeks dselect is showing several
suspicious obsolete packages:
Section Package Version
======= ============= ========
devel g++ 2.95.2-9
devel gcc 2.95.2-9
base libstdc++2.1 2.95.2-9
base libreadlineg 2.1-12
I had noticed libreadlineg there for even longer,
and was never able to delete it (because it marked
for deletion lots of packages that I wanted), but
it didn't really bother me that much.
Now, gcc and g++, that's another story. How can they
be marked as obsolete? What's more intriguing, I have
been navigating around www.debian.org, and was able
to find gcc (egcc) for the stable distribution, but
there was no such package for unstable! What gives?
I find it hard to believe gcc is disappearing from
unstable? Any hints?
Please replay by e-mail as well as to the list. Thanks,
