hi, I am not sure, if it's right to post sid-related mails here, sorry for the inconvenience.
I recently updated my testing/unstable Debian, and had to recognize, that java 1.3.1 from Sun did not run any more: gellert@ritch:~$ javac Error occurred during initialization of VM Unable to load native library: /usr/local/java/jre/lib/i386/libjava.so: symbol __libc_wait, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference Woah. Downgrading to older glibc would have been to difficult because of the dependencies, and yes, I do need version 1.3 of Java to use PSE Pro. My solution for the problem: I downloaded and decompressed the old libc6 package, into the /usr/local/libc6forjava directory. What I had to do, is to tell java to use this instead of the new glibc. I modified (I know it's ugly...) /usr/local/java/bin/.java_wrapper: ritch:/usr/local/java/bin# diff .java_wrapper .java_wrapper.old 84c84 < JAVA_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/libc6forjava/:${jre}/lib/${proc}/${vmtype}$JAVA_LIBRARY_PATH" --- > JAVA_LIBRARY_PATH="${jre}/lib/${proc}/${vmtype}$JAVA_LIBRARY_PATH" 111,112c111 < exec /usr/local/libc6forjava/ld-linux.so.2 $DEBUG_PROG "$prog" "$@" < #exec $DEBUG_PROG "$prog" "$@" --- > exec $DEBUG_PROG "$prog" "$@" Hope I could help someone out there. ritch PS: I am not on Debian-user's list, please Cc comments to my address too. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
