Re: Can I update the sparc glibc?
hmmm, this is weird. Since I upgraded to your set of glibc, I can't seem
to run Dselect anymore. :) (and dpkg gives me a bunch of errors too).
I can't get into the 'select' section of Dselect, and 'update' generates
errors, but seems to chug along.
here they are:

Anyway, any help would be appriciated. :)
So far, I havn't found anything else broken.... and Netscape runs pretty
nicely. But I think I need a faster Sparc... my little 85Mhz SS5 is a bit
overworked while running netscape. :)
thanks
