glibc 2,2


Hi, I believe I spelled it right, but I am wondering how you would get the latest version of glibc 2.2??

Getting it is one point, here I can help you:

http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/glibc/
http://http.us.debian.org/debian/poo...5-11.8_all.deb
http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/glibc/

Making it work is another problem (like dependencies for this previous deb)


You can recompile it from source (I think you need an old binutils/gcc) and to be sure not to break things you can begin by
./configure --prefix=/tmp
then manually modify /etc/ld.so.conf to add /tmp/lib
Using the deb there is an option to install the package somewhere else, you can also do it like this.
AFAIK they're should be no problem to have 2 glibc in the same directory but its critical files so be sure what you do.

Then this file doesn't exist (maybe it didn't existed at the time)

So directly launch make. You may need a lot of tweaking (since there is no configure).

If you don't feel confortable with building/configuring/.. then I highly suggest that you take the binary package!
