[gentoo-user] NPTL and glibc
I have recently built a new Gentoo 2005.0 box with a stage3 tarball. I set the NPTL flag (among others) and rebuilt the entire system. It does not appear that NPTL is sticking and I am not at all sure why; instead it has pulled in the linuxthreads package. Can anybody help out here?

RE: [gentoo-user] NPTL and glibc

It does not appear that NPTL is sticking and I am not at all sure why; instead it has pulled in the linuxthreads package. Can anybody help out here? You probably have both. If you look at the output of the glibc build you'll see a note indicating that both NPTL and linuxthreads are built and installed by gentoo. All of my systems report linuxthreads although I too have NPTL installed. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

RE: [gentoo-user] NPTL and glibc
You can also set the nptlonly flag for glibc, which will avoid using linuxthreads at all (forces everything to use nptl). If you look at the OP's message, it appeared that he did have the nptlonly flag set... There is the message about glibc/gcc masking off some use flags for stability purposes, maybe that one is masked as well. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

It used to state that Native POSIX threads were installed and linuxthreads was not listed there? I guess I just hesitate to believe that everything is correct. -- Thomas T.
