OK, GLIBC_2.0 refers to glibc5 (or 4?). Anyway, the likely reason that it is not defined in libc.so.6 is because it only supports GLIBC_2.2 (glibc 2.2.4 actually). Normally I would have expected it to be backwards compatible, but perhaps the Debian Maintainer does things differently, in order to keep the binaries smaller. Perhaps there is a compatibility packages in oldlibs (libc5 package) Warning: This is just an educated guess. Good luck Cameron Kerr -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/~cameronk/
