My guess is that your life will be substantially better if you just "upgrade" your machine wholesale to Debian testing (or unstable). That includes glibc-2.2.5 and prebuilt 2.4.18 kernel images, if you're into that sort of thing. You can also install the gcc-3.0 package from unstable to get version 3.0.4 of gcc. (This begs the question, "why do you think you need these particular versions of these particular libraries?" In general, Debian is continuing to use gcc-2.95 for things, and it works fine to build the kernel with it. You need to update a whole bunch of user-space things from Debian stable to use a 2.4.x kernel, though.) -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
