I just foolishly downloaded the 2005-11-16 linuxtex.zip minimal linux distribution and copied it on top of my previous one, and I now discover that the binaries are linked to a more recent version of glibc than I have on my linux box. Eek. I will clearly need to update the linux machine in due course, but does anyone (a) know if the binaries from the previous zip will work as a stop-gap, and (b) happen to have a copy of the previous linuxtex.zip (or the binaries from it) available for download?
Not on my mirror. Because of harddisk space constraints I do not keep old versions of the big zips, sorry. Are all executables problematic, or just pdfetex? If the latter, then you can compile it yourself from the sources at: http://sarovar.org/project/showfiles.php?group_id=106 If you (or someone else) does that, then please send those files to Hans for inclusion. Those older files will run fine on my system, but not the other way around, so I cannot provide Hans with the 'old' executables. Or just update your glibc runtime. I've done that a couple of times, by just downloading the fresh RPM file(s) haven't had any trouble with that since the libc5 days.
