Greetings! I have uploaded new glibc 2.0.106 packages for the Hurd. You can find them at ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/hurd/debian/ (or your favorite mirror site). When I have gotten my changes merged into the official Debian glibc package, they will be available from Debian archives.
All the bugs that were reported against the last set of packages have been fixed: * Install libhurduser and libmachuser symlinks, and add to debian/mkshlibs. * Hack up sunrpc for the Hurd. * Put libSegFault.so into the libc0.2 package, not libc0.2-dev. * Add better dpkg control file information. Even if you are not a Debian user, you can use a simple trick to splat the contents of a .deb onto your disk. Just su to root, `cd' to the directory you want everything in, and type: ar p /SOME/DIR/PACKAGE.deb data.tar.gz | tar -zxvpf - I'll soon be updating the GNU Hurd Hacker's Kit to include instructions for bootstrapping your own Debian GNU/Hurd system and cross-compilation environment from a minimal set of Debian packages. If somebody else wants to do this job before I get to it, please let me know. -- Gordon Matzigkeit <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> //\ I'm a FIG (http://www.fig.org/) Lovers of freedom, unite! \// I use GNU (http://www.gnu.org/) [Unfortunately, www.fig.org is broken.
