X-phase-of-the-moon: The Moon is Waning Gibbous (99% of Full) X-Mozilla-Status2: 00000000 RedHat has put out an update to its glibc package (see http://www.redhat.com/support/errata/RHSA-2000-057-04.html). This package fixes a few problems that glibc-2.1.3-19 had. From the advisory page: The previous version of the 6.x errata introduced some threading problems visible with JDK and Mozilla, the 5.x errata had a bug which caused several localized programs to die with segmentation fault at startup.Both of these problems are fixed with this errata update. I have built Immunix (StackGuard) packages and made them available on the immunix.org website. They're available in: http://www.immunix.org:8080/ImmunixOS/6.2/updates/SRPMS/glibc-2.1.3-21_StackGuard.src.rpm or http://www.immunix.org:8080/ImmunixOS/6.2/updates/RPMS/ glibc-2.1.3-21_StackGuard.i386.rpm glibc-devel-2.1.3-21_StackGuard.i386.rpm glibc-profile-2.1.3-21_StackGuard.i386.rpm nscd-2.1.3-21_StackGuard.i386.rpm md5sums of the packages: 1ba1f697c602c10597992fed9332fab4 glibc-2.1.3-21_StackGuard.src.rpm c421c4e7139044a7b7b2fedd890a5ff3 glibc-2.1.3-21_StackGuard.i386.rpm f83b8f979f31b77a11d164ca099476d2 glibc-devel-2.1.3-21_StackGuard.i386.rpm e76037d6f8c502d18db71569cb05b4bc glibc-profile-2.1.3-21_StackGuard.i386.rpm 13db8cbd75e37816eccee5fee4f3208a nscd-2.1.3-21_StackGuard.i386.rpm Thanks! -- Steve Beattie Don't trust programmers? <steve@wirex.net> Complete StackGuard distro at immunix.org Push the button, Frank. --------------E0A2EC33A39F8CBF70D6281A--
