Try something like $apt-cache search --names-only glibc glibc-doc - GNU C Library: Documentation libc6-pic - GNU C Library: PIC archive library libg++2.8.1.3-glibc2.2 - The GNU C++ extension library - runtime version libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 - The GNU stdc++ library glibc-doc-reference - GNU C Library: Documentation libc6 - GNU C Library: Shared libraries Basically, you are looking for libc6. glibc = "GNU C Library". glibc 2.x in Linux uses the soname libc.so.6. The soname is often abbreviated as libc6. > How can I install the source code to a local rather than to /usr > directory? apt-get source package_name The above command does not need any special permissions. You can unpack the source code in any directory you wish. You might also need another command such as apt-get build-dep package_name this will automatically install all the dependencies necessary for compiling the package_name. hth raju -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/kk288/ http://malayamaarutham.blogspot.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
