Bug#36762: libc6 (2.1.1-1) breaks OSF/Motif libXm.so: undefined reference to `_xstat'
Package: libc6
Version: 2.1.1-1
Used Motif-Version: Metro Links OSF/Motif 2.0.1 elf format
Kernel: 2.0.36
System: Debian Slink (CD image)
After upgrading from libc6 (2.0.7.19981211-6)in slink to
the unstable (potato) version (2.1.1-1) linking with the motif library ( -lXm )
produces:
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXm.so: undefined reference to `_xstat'
The symbol _xstat is present in the old libc6 library:
nm -D OLD_libc.so.6 | egrep xstat
00069540 T __fxstat
00069650 T __lxstat
00069430 T __xstat
00069540 W _fxstat
00069650 W _lxstat
00069430 W _xstat
but not in the new one:
nm -D /lib/libc.so.6 | egrep xstat
000a5100 T __fxstat
000a5560 T __fxstat64
000a5250 T __lxstat
000a5690 T __lxstat64
000a4fb0 T __xstat
000a5430 T __xstat64
The result is that linking the Motif library is impossible.
Additionally the problem ist still present after doing an full upgrade from
potato on friday, 23.4.199. So the symbol seems to be unavailable in potato.
