netscape
Hi all!
Reading from linux-kernel, it seems that netscape crashes with the
libc 5.4.
Quoting from Alan Cox:
====================
Unpack libc5.2.18 libc.so.5.2.18 into /usr/local/netscrap/lib. Move
netscape into /usr/local/netscrap/lib
Add a new script 'netscape' that does
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/netscrap/lib/libc.so.5.2.18
exec /usr/local/netscrap/lib/netscape
Now only netscrap uses the old buggy library and you don't inflict it on
the rest of your machine.
====================
Maybe the netscape package could provide this. Is it possible to have two
versions of the libc package at the same time, and use the older one for
netscape? Netscape should recommend libc-5.2.18 or libc-5.0.9, because with
these versions, its bugs are less evident.
All The Best,
Marco
