Debian 1.2 -> 1.2.4: whence libpthreads?
Whatever happended to the Pthreads libs that used to be part of
libc5?
mdiers@pixie [/cdrom/debian] $ dpkg -c Debian-1.2/binary/base/libc5_5.4.13-1.deb | grep pthreads
-rwxr-xr-x root/root 104324 Nov 24 05:11 1996 usr/lib/libpthreads.so.1.60.4
lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 Nov 24 05:11 1996 usr/lib/libpthreads.so.1 -> libpthreads.so.1.60.4
mdiers@pixie [/cdrom/debian] $ dpkg -c Debian-1.2.4/binary/base/libc5_5.4.20-1.deb | grep pthreads
(void)
Likewise, the Pthreads header files went missing in libc5-dev.
I grepped through the other packages in rex-updates. There does
not seem to be a trace of pthreads. This comes as a bit of a
surprise to me. Any suggestions? Would this perhaps be `fixed' in
Debian 1.2.7?
