Re: Using old libstdc library

You are liable to break things if you do that.  I'm not particularly sure
which version has that software but if your software from Novell is not
picky on the distro version then yes use slink or even hamm.

Subject: Using old libstdc library


I'm using Debian 2.2 distribution and have a piece of commercial software
>from Novell that won't install unless it has the following file ...

libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2

I've had a look at this distribution and Debian 2.2 uses

libstdc++-libc6.1-2.so.3

Is it possible to go backwards and am I likely to break anything? If I
cannot go backwards should I start with the 2.1 distribution and work my way
up?

Thanks

Craig
