I may have just shot myself in the foot, but I decided to go ahead and upgrade my wife's machine. It was running stable (lenny atm) and I wanted to get it to testing. Its running trinity as well.
So I updated the apt-conf to
APT::Default-Release "testing";
(My base sources.list includes links for all three releases), updated the trinity list from the lenny one to the squeeze one (the ppa format), and I ran aptitude update; aptitude full-upgrade.
Things went well for about 30 minutes, then crashed. Now I am getting
[root@galaxy archives]# dpkg --configure -a Setting up menu (2.1.41) ... update-menus: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: undefined symbol: _ZNSt8messagesIcE2idE, version GLIBCXX_3.4 dpkg: error processing menu (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 127 Setting up python2.6 (2.6.6-8+b1) ... update-menus: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: undefined symbol: _ZNSt8messagesIcE2idE, version GLIBCXX_3.4 dpkg: error processing python2.6 (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 127 dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libpython2.6: libpython2.6 depends on python2.6 (= 2.6.6-8+b1); however: Package python2.6 is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing libpython2.6 (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: menu python2.6 libpython2.6
and I can't get past the undefined symbol. Can anyone suggest what I need to get this done? Especially since I didn't warn my wife what I was doing?
Thanks, --b
I'd suggest you puge "menu" and reinstall it after the upgrade.

APT::Default-Release "testing";
Don't leave that in for too long, Squeeze release is due this weekend. I would disable sid as well.
You might have to purge all three of those temporarily, use simulate mode first to see what will happen.
I assume you did upgrade the kernel first.
Good luck........ i use only apt-get, can't help much with aptitude.

The Debian notes say to use apt-get for the upgrade from Lenny to Squeeze. (And this from a died-in-the-woll aptitude user.)
And you need to update udev as well as the kernel before doing the rest of the upgrade.
Mind you, I have not done it! I shall use a fresh install to ensure that I do not get given KDE4 stuff willy nilly.
And not for a week or two. ;-)
