any fix/workaround for: #156937: libc6-sparc64 2.2.5-11 conflicts with gcc-3.0
it seems like bugs:
#162551: libc6-sparc64 conflicts with fakeroot (52 days old)
#156937: libc6-sparc64 2.2.5-11 conflicts with gcc-3.0 (94 days old)
have not been fixed, they prevent me to dist-upgrade (I am trying to
upgrade from stable to testing, not sure if that matters), at least in
'normla way (using either aptitude (commands ugg) or apt-get update &&
apt-get dist-upgrade).
any info about whether this going to be fixed (when?)?
is there any workaround?

You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
libc6-dev-sparc64: Depends: libc6-sparc64 (= 2.2.5-14.3) but
2.2.5-11.2 is installed
libc6-sparc64: Depends: libc6 (= 2.2.5-11.2) but 2.2.5-14.3 is
installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
when I try to do what it suggests:
billteam:/home/erik# apt-get -f install
