glibc availability

[Eric Delaunay <delaunay@lix.polytechnique.fr>]

I'm trying to compile things with my newly compiled libc6 package but I run
into troubles about some headers.  So, I will not upload it to Debian site
now.
Nevertheless, I uploaded it to my site:
  ftp://lix.polytechnique.fr/pub/Linux/debian/sparc/exp

You have to download the following files:
 1386182 Jul  8 00:04 libc6-dev_2.0.90-970629-1_sparc.deb
  741428 Jul  8 00:05 libc6_2.0.90-970629-1_sparc.deb
  988576 Jul  8 00:05 locales_2.0.90-970629-1_sparc.deb
  254792 Jul  8 00:05 timezones_2.0.90-970629-1_sparc.deb
  921268 Jul  8 00:04 binutils_2.8.1-2.1_sparc.deb
  162792 Jul  8 00:04 libbfd2.8.1_2.8.1-2.1_sparc.deb
and maybe these optional packages:
  307110 Jul  8 00:04 libbfd2.8.1-dev_2.8.1-2.1_sparc.deb
 4541934 Jul  8 00:04 libc6-dbg_2.0.90-970629-1_sparc.deb
  554402 Jul  8 00:04 libc6-doc_2.0.90-970629-1_all.deb
 1636860 Jul  8 00:04 libc6-pic_2.0.90-970629-1_sparc.deb

New binutils is needed to link with libc6.
You have to replace GCC specs file (/usr/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-linux/2.7.2.1/specs)
by the one provided in this mail as MIME attachement.

Get it and try it :-)).
Pay attention about libraries you link with your binaries.  Don't link with
libg++, ncurses, slang...  They have to be recompiled with libc6 before they
can be used.
Now I'm trying to build libg++ (with some glitches :-( ).

Good luck ;-)
