It's the same version, I repacked the 2.1 version for a netscape
guy who had the same problem as you.
Bernd> Question 1:

No, and I will not make one because the final release will be ready
soon.
Bernd> Question 2:
Bernd> Are there known problems with bzip? On Debian 2.1?
The pre-releases were built and bzipped on Debian 2.1/2.2, I just
tried to extract the archives and had no problems.

Bernd> What will I get into upgrading to glibc-2.1?
Bernd> I fetched

Bernd> libc6_2_1_1-2.deb

I would recommend a complete upgrade to potato.
The only problem I have with potato is that gdb currently hangs with
threaded programs (e.g. the JDK).
