Recompiling a new glibc for use in a new skel.....

Get hold of latest SRPM from redhat (eg. glibc-2.2.4-31.src.rpm) and install
	rpm -ivh glibc-2.2.4-31.src.rpm

Copy glibc-2.2.4-freevsd.patch from attached email and put in /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/

Open /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/glibc.spec, and edit as follows:

	*At the top where it starts with Release, change from:

	Release: %{glibcrelease}

	 to

	Release: %{glibcrelease}vsd


	*After the lines:

	Patch14: glibc-2.2.4-maxpacket.patch
	Patch15: glibc-2.2.4-setrlimit.patch

	add:

	Patch16: glibc-2.2.4-freevsd.patch

	*Further down, after the lines:

	%patch14 -p1
	%patch15 -p1

	add:

	%patch16 -p1


goto /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/ and issue the command::


[root@spare SPECS]# rpm -bb glibc.spec


This will start building the binary rpm's for the new skel.....

When finished, the binary rpm's will be in /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/i386/
