I have the gcc_2.91.57-1.deb installed at home, and that's where I came
across this. I haven't looked yet to see if there's a newer one, will do
when I get the chance.

As I said, don't expect the source to do anything sensible, it's what
was left after I stripped out everything that didn't cause the bug to go
away.

It's from one of the (out of date / not yet ported) graphics packages; I
can't check which one for about 24 hours, however. It's probably eeyes
(source gnome-graphics).
I was building packages that currently depend on libjpeg[g]6a, so that
they would depend on libjpeg6b instead, so that the old libraries can be
retired (which is why I also came across the imake problems with
chimera2).
BTW, people, please make sure you're not building stuff with
the old (development) libraries installed! Especially the libjpeg* stuff
is a mess... E.g. gimp 1.0.0-1 currently depends on libjpegg6a, and that
can't be necessary.
Most of the oldlibs packages aren't needed anymore. I'll post a summary
soon of the situation, and request that certain packages are removed
from the ftp site.

I saw that menu now succeeded, whereas the C++ stuff failed previously.
Things are getting better!
