How can libc5 version of X windows libraries be added to a Debian 2.0 system (which is based on libc6)?
I've upgrading to Debian 2.0 (from Debian 1.3) by installing Debian 2.0 from scratch on a new root partition, and setting up pieces individually (e.g., PPP) to match my 1.3 system. I found the libc5 and libg++27 libraries I needed to run several things from my previous system. However, I also need the libc5 versions of X libraries. I can get them, but don't know how make them co-exist on the same system. Are there any instructions anywhere for how to add libc5-based libraries to libc6-based system? (I remember that there were some upgrading instructions quite a while ago regarding how to add libc6-based libraries to a libc5-based system, or maybe how to keep libc5-based libraries when upgrading to a libc6-based system. Is there anything equivalent that applies to a fresh libc6-based installation? Or might those instructions contain helpful information? (And where would they be?) ) (Yes, I plan on getting rid of the libc5-based stuff, but I want to finish moving to my Debian 2.0-based system before I start upgrading other things.) Thanks, Daniel
