I am upgrading Debian Squeeze systems from TDE 3.5.12
to 3.5.13.
The upgrades seem to work fine omitting the following packages:
gcc-4.5-base 4.5.2-8ubuntu4 i386
libgcc1 1:4.5.2-8ubuntu4 i386
libgfortran3 4.5.2-8ubuntu4 i386
libgomp1 4.5.2-8ubuntu4 i386
libstdc++6 4.5.2-8ubuntu4 i386
I am loathe to install non-Debian versions of these packages in
case they cause problems with other Debian software, either now
or in future. Is there any reason why Trinity needs to replace
such critical packages?
Thanks,

That looks like a side effect of having to build Trinity on a newer
version of gcc than Squeeze provides. You shouldn't have to install the
upgraded gcc if you don't want to.
