I have two VM-guests apt-get updated and upgraded today and did not
encounter these problems. My package versions are:
ii dpkg 1.9.17
ii g++ 2.95.4-6
ii g++-2.95 2.95.4-0.010827
ii gcc 2.95.4-6
ii gcc-2.95 2.95.4-0.010827
ii less 358-9
ii perl 5.6.1-5
ii perl-5.6 6.2
ii perl-base 5.6.1-5
ii perl-modules 5.6.1-5
ii telnet 0.17-15.0.1
The only difference I sees is in less (you: 358-8, me:358-9) but this
shouldn't explain your problems.
I just tried a
apt-get remove g++ gcc telnet less
apt-get install g++ gcc telnet less
on one of the machines and nothing went wrong.
Although it seems very unlikely but might it be a Hercules problem?
