Ok, I'm confused. I'm trying to install the C++ compiler. Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies: g++: Depends: libstdc++2.10-dev (>= 1:2.95.2-10) but it is not going to be installed E: Sorry, broken packages lupus:~# apt-get install libstdc++2.10-dev Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
libstdc++2.10-dev: Depends: libc6-dev but it is not going to be installed
E: Sorry, broken packages
So libstdc++2.10-dev depends on libc6-dev, but it is not going to be
installed?? Interesting, considering that it's already installed:
lupus:~# dpkg -l libc6-dev
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed
|/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err:

||/ Name Version Description

ii libc6-dev 2.1.95-1 GNU C Library:
Development Libraries and Header Fi
So what's going on? How do I get this thing installed?
Thanks,
Mike
