The problem with the proposed patch is that it ignores the reason for
adding libstdc++2.10-dev in the first place, namely that a dependency on
this version of the C++ tools (g++2.95/libstdc++2.10-dev) is needed if
we are to ever be able to build the thesaurus data files from source.
The fact that there is no libstdc++2.10-dev on amd64 or hppa means the necessary tools can't be built on these platforms.
Since it happens that we *don't* build the thesaurus data from source as
part of the package build, I think it's sufficient here to keep the
build-dep on platforms where it's available, and drop it for platforms
where it isn't.
The attached patch reflects this; and I'll be planning to NMU shortly.
Thanks,
