Re: Good results with libc6 snapshot

That is bad to hear. I'm running the libc6 snapshot on an old Pentium-MMX
machine, and will be shortly running it on my SparcStation 20 (sparc32)
when I get around to doing the install.

Installation for me was a matter of downloading libc6, libc6-dev,
glibc-doc, and locales into one directory and then

# dpkg -i libc*.deb locales*.deb glibc-doc*.deb

Things worked without a hitch.

Ah... maybe the problem is that I installed libc6-i686. I need that for NPTL threads which is the main reason I'm upgrading.

Hm... It also looks like libc6-i686 depends on libc6 which seems a bit odd. Wondering if this is the problem I'm having....
