Well, I tried to compile packages with the new glibc but it fails due to
configure errors. In fact configure considers this message an error when
running some tools like cpp :-((
Therefore I should remove my assert: we *can't* live with it for now :-(
I suggest the next upload of libc6 to completely squeeze this message.
After upgraded to new libc6 I cannot connect to my sparc box with rlogin
anymore :-( I get this error message:
[miles] # rlogin deedee
usr/sbin/in.rlogind: Symbol `_sys_errlist' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking
It comes from tcpd. Then I removed tcpd from the login line of inetd.conf.
Now I get the following error:
[miles] #
[miles] # rlogin deedee
deedee.pontchartrain.fr: Unknown error
and a segfault message on the deedee console:
Jan 21 23:30:10 deedee kernel: Fault: in.rlogind[6578]: segfaults at 00000000 pc=5007edd8
My system is running netbase 3.01-1 & netstd 2.11-1
(and libc6 2.0.91 of course).
In fact, we need to rebuild some packages:
netstd (old release for libc5 -> current source is 3.01-1)
netbase (a newer release exists: 3.03-1)
However, I'm waiting for a dumb ld-linux.so.2 to recompile both packages.
Regards.
PS: OTOH, there are 2 small bugs in libc6-dev:
1/ usr/include/linux/version.h is missing
2/ usr/include/asm is also missing (should point to asm-sparc)
