Hallo Ken! I did the upgrade, just a bit different than I was told to. I gave up on my old SuSE and used that partition to test my bakup tarballs change root to xfs and did the glibc upgrade chroot from the old to the new system. Was that a good way? Well, so far it seems to have worked very well. I compiled gcc again and now without any failures just xpass. I did a try on compiling glibc again there but I still have this segvault error. I can get passed that test, if I run make -k check with gcc-3.3.6 but the libs have to be compiled with gcc-4.0.3 so I'd say that's just tricked. Also wine is working nicely now, though it does not allow me to install the win-programme I compiled it for. Do You suggest compiling something else again with the new glibc, or should I just wait until I encounter some problems?
