Installing compat-libstdc++ in Debian 4.0

avijitp · 08-20-2010, 07:29 AM

How can I install compat-libstdc++ in Debian 4.0?
I have extracted the libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 file from compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-143.i686.rpm but while the libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 is being used, it is giving an error as below:

Code:

/lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3)

Please advise.

Support for Etch stopped in Feb. You should upgrade to the current Debian Stable/Lenny.

Older releases of Debian are at http://archive.debian.org/debian-archive

I am getting following error when I try to first upgrade Etch to its last available package versions.

Any advise?

How long has it been since you updated?
The etch repositories have been moved to archives
You should go ahead and change your /etc/apt/sources.list to point to lenny. Then the upgrade sequence is:

Code:

# aptitude update
# aptitude install apt aptitude dpkg
# aptitude safe-upgrade
# aptitude full-upgrade
