So with your arithmetics 2.2.5 != 2.2.5. Hey that's great. How about naming the next Linux kernel release 2.0 just to confuse some people? :-) Seriously though, while this is offtopic on this list, I wonder what's going on. If I have a system with glibc 2.2.5, I cannot expect this to be the same version as on another system with glibc 2.2.5. Is this the correct understanding? And which changelog should I read? The RedHat one, the Debian one or the glibc one? Or does the -34 mean more than just the RedHat version number? The Debian version is correctly named 2.2.5-6 where the -6 means that this is the 6th release of glibc 2.2.5 for Debian, Michael -- Michael Meskes [EMAIL PROTECTED] Go SF 49ers! Go Rhein Fire!
