Bug#307868: gcc-3.3: request for additional link in /usr/lib/gcc-lib



Package: gcc-3.3
Version: 1:3.3.6-2
Severity: wishlist


for tools like makedepend, the current packaging of the gcc compiler
is not ideal.

lots of files (like stdarg) are in a gcc version specific directory.
for me that is 
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/3.3.6/include/stddef.h

thie 3.3.6 is annoying since it changes with every (minor) upgrade
of the compiler.

Hence request to add a link to the package

ln /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/3.3.6 /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/3.3 

This way for each minor upgrade, the directory no longer changes
