_dl_loaded unresolved?

Hola~ After running dist-upgrade to unstable, I found an app that no longer runs with: % maya /usr/aw/maya4.0/bin/maya.bin: relocation error: /usr/aw/maya4.0/lib/libFoundation.so: undefined symbol: _dl_loaded which I believe should be defined in libc, right? Anyone else having this p

doc for building a deb

bad network after power failure

Hola~ After a power failure, my network did not come back. The network driver loads, but ifconfig isn't really happy: % ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1 SIOCSIFADDR: Bad file descriptor ifconfig to eth0 returns the same error. Also, I'm getting "neighbour table overflow" messages randomly spewed t
