I also did a clean install from the
debian-staging/gnu-libio-20020422.tar.gz. Since I can't get my ne2000
to work I'm trying to get at least enough tools to compile gnumach, but
I'm not there yet. I set up an offline apt configuration as described
in doc/apt/offline.text.gz which works well. I directly mount the hurd
partition under my woody system and apt works well. If anyone is
interested in the details, let me know and I can post my config files.
All this for a network driver for the hurd. My finger are very tired of
manual ftp downloads (due to the db2 dependency making apt-get useless).
Yet I've made alot of progress.
The db2 dependency cascades into quite a few package problems for me.
I also ran into a problem with libstdc++3-dev which depends on
libc6-dev. How do I resolve this? Shouldn't this now be libc0.3?
I also found that ssh 1:3.0.2pl1-8.3 during installation tries to open
/dev/urandom but fails. MAKEDEV doesn't help.
Cheers,
