I do think it is reasonable. The idea behind hwcap or osversion is to provide two versions of the same libraries and select the right one at runtime depending on the hardware or kernel capabilities. ldconfig therefore parse all directories from /etc/ld.so.conf.d/* and default libraries. It then use by order of priority: - matching hwcap libraries first - matching osversion libraries - libraries from /etc/ld.so.conf.d/* - libraries from internal path Not following this kind of order basically makes the osversion features useless. -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 1024D/F1BCDB73 aurel...@aurel32.net http://www.aurel32.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-glibc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
