I know I did, and I went back to libc6 2.07 : I suppose you could upgrade to potato and avoid the problems. : If you try it on a slink system, do not go back from the potato version of : ld.so to the slink version or you will break the system; I just kept the newer : ld.so when I went back to the older libc6. Do not upgrade only libc6. It will break your system if you do. If you want to upgrade to libc6, upgrade all the way to potato. -- Dan Nguyen | It is with true love as it is with ghosts; [EMAIL PROTECTED] | everyone talks of it, but few have seen it.
