Program Needs libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3



I had to upgrade my workstation recently and am using Unstable for 
several reasons.

I just reinstalled RealVNC (not a .deb).  The server runs fine, but when I try 
to run vncviewer, I get this:

[hal@workstation:~]$ vncviewer
vncviewer: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: 
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I know there's been some kind of issue in Debian about handling the upgrade 
with the changes in C libraries, but I know very little about C and am not 
sure what package would contain this program or if it conflicts with other 
libraries.

I've searched and found a few pages that tell me to create a symlink to 
libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2, but that file doesn't exist either.  I have been 
using aptitude, since I understand that is recommended for Sarge and later, 
but I tried apt-file search to find a .deb with either of these files, and it 
doesn't seem to be working at all.  I am not a C programmer, but I know there 
is an issue with an upgrade of glibc, so I don't want to just start 
installing libs when that could cause a conflict.  I'd search on debian.org 
for the .deb, but the packages section is down.

Does anyone have an alternate solution?  I need to get RealVNC working, since 
my clients use it for me to troubleshoot their systems.  I can run the 
TightVNC viewer, but Tight and Real don't use the same compression, so I get 
a VERY sluggish connection.  I tried compiling RealVNC on my system, but I 
get errors that suggest problems with the source code (a "}" is missing).

Thanks for any help or ideas.

Hal
