Description: Advanced front-end for dpkg
This is Debian's next generation front-end for the dpkg package manager.
It provides the apt-get utility and APT dselect method that provides a
simpler, safer way to install and upgrade packages.
.

and several other unique features, see the Users Guide in apt-doc.

This package contains an additional runtime library for C++ programs
built with the GNU compiler.

in g++-3.0.

Backtrace stopped: previous frame identical to this frame (corrupt stack?)
Failure reproducable (always happens on this system - all other apps seem to
be ok). Tested on a cleanly installed lenny (elbs - see below) and a etch
that was run through apt-get upgrade (no problem with apt-get on etch powerpc)
