I believe there are packages for both redhat and debian for libc5 compiling.
I do (still) plan to make an easy compile environment package, but, it doesn't exist yet. Definitly gnu is not the place to start, libc5 was never a gnu thing, it was purely a linux thing (though derived from gnu libc). Unfortunately, I do not use redhat, so, I don't know where their packages can be gotten... There are lots of places to get libc5 canonically, such as: http://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/libs/ which includes the debian package I think. -Tom On Wed, 22 May 2002, Yan Fitterer wrote: > Date: Wed, 22 May 2002 20:11:40 -0000 > From: Yan Fitterer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [tomsrtbt] libc5 > > Hi, > > Thanks very much for all the help so far.
