I've tried the slink-libc, and it gives me problems with the chown whenever I try to use tar (tried to recompile tar as well). The same thing works fine with both the 980705-snap (which I've built a deb from), and with the redhat glibc2.1.. I've also experienced problems with gzip (with dpkg -i on certain files), where the redhat gzip works fine (as does the redhat patches for gzip pasted on top of the debian-source (which some mods due to conflicts between diffs)). /Stefan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
