   Hi Debian users,
   today I run dselect with apt method to upgrade my box to slink and after
 quit dselect, I can't run neither dselect neither apt again.
   There is a error:
 
   jaca:~# dselect
   dselect: error in loading shared libraries
   /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.8: undefined symbol: __register_frame_info
 
   jaca:~# apt-get clean
   apt-get: error in loading shared libraries
   /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.0-1.so.2: undefined symbol: 
 __register_frame_info
 
   I did a dpkg -S and discovered that the package with this library is:
   jaca:~# dpkg -S libstdc++-libc6.0-1.so.2 | more
 
   How I can repair this now?
   Have a nice day,Paulo Henrique

I just had this problem.  Downgrade dpkg and apt to the versions in frozen.
See recent discussion on debian-devel for more...

I recently 'upgraded' my system from hamm to potato. Unfortunately, I was
targeting slink and much of the system is down right now. Where can I find
some info on mass-downgrading?
