Package: gcc-4.2 Version: 4.2-20070307-1 Severity: grave When I try to run gcc-4.2, it says: gcc-4.2: error trying to exec 'cc1': execvp: No such file or directory Needless to say, a compiler that doesn't compile is rather useless, hence the severity. I discovered this whilst trying to build an autoconf-using program with gcc-4.2. Apparently, it is looking in /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.2.0, because if I symlink that to /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.2 (where cc1 is), it works. Note that /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.2.0 was an empty directory; I moved it out of the way to make the symlink. Merely moving it out of the way without creating the symlink did not cause gcc-4.2 to work. If you should need more information, please let me know. N.B.
