I have cc to debian-user rather then debian-mentors since I believe -user is
more appropriate for this. -mentors is meant to help making debs.

libc6-dev: /usr/include/math.h
dpkg: /usr/include/floatingpoint.h not found.
dpkg: /usr/include/sys/ieeefp.h not found.
I have /usr/include/math.h from the libc6-dev and the other 2 are not in my
system.
Tough, of course, this does not mean that there is no package that installs
them.
However could it be that you are mixing Sun tools, headers, files and so on
with Debian? Does the software that you are trying to compile was obtained as
a software that gets compiled with Linux?

Hillel used to say: If I am not for myself who will be for me?
Yet, if I am for myself only, what am I? And if not now, when?
