libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 missing?

[tambooki]

I tried to fire up a binary tonight, and was told that my system doesn't have libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3. I googled around, and used debian's package search on the site to find what packages should provide this (libstdc++2.10, I believe), but that package isn't availble for me. I'm running a 64-bit system, and I did notice that such a file exists in the ia32-libs package listed on the debian site, but my ia32-libs didn't include it. Am I missing something here? Also, is there something similar to the debian package search (http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages#search_contents) for ubuntu? I find it really useful when trying to track down what package provides a specific file. I don't believe apt or dpkg let's you list files installed by package if they aren't already installed, but correct me if I'm wrong.

Hello,

This package isnt installed by default however you can install it via apt or synaptic you make also want to enable the universe.

Does anyone have answers to any of tambooki's questions? I am also having exactly this issue. Pardon my restating of the question, but ubuntu-geek's answer didn't even begin to answer it. I'm running amd64 edgy eft and have some old software which depends on libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3. On Debian, the libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 library comes from ia32-libs but on edgy eft this package does not contain libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3.

I have found how to use apt-file to search for packages containing files and cannot find any packages which contain the libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3.

Here's what I did:

sudo apt-get install apt-file
sudo apt-file update
apt-file compress # just to check that' apt-file is working; this returned lots
apt-file libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3

No packages are listed containing libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3.

I should also mention that I have universe and multiverse packages and do already have the ia32-libs package installed.

One other quick note. The libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 file for 32 bit edgy is supplied by the libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 package. I'm still mystified as to where to get this file for 64 bit edgy.
