I think i've figured out (part of) thje problem. Somehow, and i've yet to figure out how, when i was attempting to build glibc-2.2.5 last week, parts of it got installed. I have no idea how, since the build bombed out (ironically with a core dump) and i never even got as far as the 'make install' phase. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lonni J Friedman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Linux Step-by-step & TyGeMo http://netllama.ipfox.com _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
