Comment 1 for bug 292381

I just updated a different system with aptitude that was using the main Ubuntu repo (us.archive.ubuntu.com) and got the same results:

Original versions:
cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.24-21-generic (buildd@palmer) (gcc version 4.2.3 (Ubuntu 4.2.3-2ubuntu7)) #1 SMP Mon Aug 25 17:32:09 UTC 2008

gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.2.3 (Ubuntu 4.2.3-2ubuntu7)

After update:
cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.24-21-generic (buildd@palmer) (gcc version 4.2.3 (Ubuntu 4.2.3-2ubuntu7)) #1 SMP Tue Oct 21 23:43:45 UTC 2008

gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.2.4 (Ubuntu 4.2.4-1ubuntu3)

cat /var/log/aptitude # Pardon the cat abuse
