Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

upgrading glibc (from src) on fedora 2: msg#00006

Subject: upgrading glibc (from src) on fedora 2
hi,

i've been trying to build/install glibc-2.3.4 on a
fedora 2 installation but am having problems when it
goes to install.

in the latter stages (its already copied some of the
new libc libs into place) the installation scripts run
'rm' but this fails due to undefined symbol
_dl_starting_up@@GLIBC_PRIVATE in /lib/tls/libc.so.6.
 however, this still points to libc-2.3.3.

has anyone successfully built/installed glibc on
fedora 2 to avoid this?  and yes, i want to build from
src.  the flags to configure were:

  ./glibc-2.3.4/configure --prefix=/usr
--sysconfdir=/etc
--sbindir=/sbin \
    --enable-add-ons --enable-kernel=2.6.11
--disable-profile \
    --with-tls --enable-shared --enable-bind-now

these are almost the same as the ones found in the
.spec file for the glibc that is installed on the
machine -- the linuxthreads stuff were also placed
into the correct dirs.  i used the same src and
configure
options on a different machine running an old suse
installation and that went in without problems.

i'm building with gcc-3.4.3 and binutils 2.15.

any help appreciated!
thanks
