Re: rawhide: kernel vs glibc

2000-10-08 Thread Matt Wilson
You're getting this kernel out of the preview/ directory? Any glibc package with ".2.4" at the end of the release is built without any support for kernels older than 2.4. This makes glibc faster, as it does not have to figure out what kernel is running to determine which kernel interfaces to use

rawhide: kernel vs glibc

2000-10-08 Thread Svante Signell
Thank you RH for updating the RawHide release. A few thoughts though: Trying to install the latest glibc (2.1.92-14.2.4) conflicts with the kernel I'm currently running: 2.2.16. (Wont change to 2.4.0-pre until I've resolved how to replace the masquerade setup in ipchains with iptables.) # rpm -
