Public bug reported: On a dapper drake AMD64 machine in a 64 bit environment, you have: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ LC_ALL=C objdump -s -j .note.ABI-tag /lib/libm.so.6
/lib/libm.so.6: file format elf64-x86-64 Contents of section .note.ABI-tag: 0200 04000000 10000000 01000000 474e5500 ............GNU. 0210 00000000 02000000 06000000 00000000 ................ However, in a 32 bit environment you have: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ LC_ALL=C objdump -s -j .note.ABI-tag /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libm.so.6 /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libm.so.6: file format elf32-i386 Contents of section .note.ABI-tag: 0114 04000000 10000000 01000000 474e5500 ............GNU. 0124 00000000 02000000 06000000 00000000 ................

This effectively makes LD_ASSUME_KERNEL (and thus LinuxThreads as an alternative to NPTL) unusable. Shouldn't this be transparent? ** Affects: glibc (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- library ABI-tags not the same for 64bit and 32bit AMD https://launchpad.net/bugs/60711 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
