The last part is probably a result of how the dselect access method you use
is implemented. There is nothing in libstdc++2.8 that requires dpkg to
unconfigure itself.

I suspect this will work if you use "apt" as dselect's access method. In any
case, you should be able to work things out in dselect after you've upgraded
libstdc++2.8 through dpkg.
