[Xapian-discuss] Debian Package Installation

[Ted Jordan]

Hi:

I've successfully installed Xapian under Ubuntu Linux using APT but when I 
tried it on an older Debian machine I got a broken package error:

------------------------------------------
# apt-get install libxapian8
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libxapian8: Depends: libgcc1 (>= 1:4.0) but 1:3.4.3-13 is to be installed
E: Sorry, broken packages
---------------------------------------------

The system is gcc 3.3 and associated libs installed.

Any ideas what dependency is missing?

Thanks,
-Ted.
