Luckily the standard C library is installed, or else all would be broken. However the headers are not necessarily installed. Depends on the type of installation you chose.
In general: The libfoo.deb package will contain the libfoo.x.y.so binary files, but not the foo.h headers, since they'll only be used if compiling stuff. The headers can be found in libfoo-dev.deb In this case, libc6-dev so apt-get install libc6-dev should do it HTH, Romain On Tue, 30 Jan 2001, Jeff Weatherford wrote: > Ok, maybe I'm a looser, but I thought that the standard c libraries were > part of the libc package.
