Package: os-prober Version: 0.06 Severity: normal The linux-distro probe looks for /lib/ld-linux* to find out when a partition's got a Linux distribution on it. This is fine on some architectures, but not everything calls the dynamic loader ld-linux.so. glibc/shlib-versions says:
# The dynamic loader also requires different names. i.86-.*-linux.* ld=ld-linux.so.2 sparc64-.*-linux.* ld=ld-linux.so.2 GLIBC_2.2 sparc.*-.*-linux.* ld=ld-linux.so.2 alpha.*-.*-linux.* ld=ld-linux.so.2 arm.*-.*-linux.* ld=ld-linux.so.2 sh.*-.*-linux.* ld=ld-linux.so.2 GLIBC_2.2 ia64-.*-linux.* ld=ld-linux-ia64.so.2 GLIBC_2.2 mips.*-.*-linux.* ld=ld.so.1 GLIBC_2.0 GLIBC_2.2 hppa.*-.*-.* ld=ld.so.1 GLIBC_2.2 s390x-.*-linux.* ld=ld64.so.1 GLIBC_2.2 powerpc64.*-.*-linux.* ld=ld64.so.1 GLIBC_2.3 cris-.*-linux.* ld=ld.so.1 GLIBC_2.2 x86_64-.*-linux.* ld=ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 GLIBC_2.2.5 # We use the ELF ABI standard name for the default. .*-.*-.* ld=ld.so.1 I don't have any better ideas apart from maybe looking for the kernel instead, which is harder. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
