Re: does libc5.4.7 compatible with netscape 3.0
Yet another problem with libc5.4.7-- but only if we back out to the
previous stable version.
Specifically; the latest cpp and gcc packages [the ones on which I based
my objc-compatible gcc/cpp packages] REQUIRE libc5.4.7. So, backing out on
5.4.7 will likely require backing out to gcc 2.7.2.1-1 (instead of
2.7.2.1-2).
I am in the process of taking over the gcc [and gdb] package[s] from the
current maintainer, so will need to make a decision based on community
desires.
How to procede?
[Karl Sackett has been putting together a complete set of gnustep debian
packages for community consumption. Unfortunately, as it stands, the
compiler consistently crashes when attempting to optimize certain pieces of
code. Looks like I picked the *wrong* time to start maintaining gcc... oh
well, off to an intense session with gdb, I suppose].

I agree it should be on rex, but just recompiling doesn't work. As I
already said here, I compiled wdiff with gcc 2.7.2.1 and it still
segfaults.
