Yeah, I forgot about that one. And add to it that you can't link in glibc statically if your code uses any of the name resolution functions like gethostbyname(3), because this needs the nss*.so libraries that are *always* loaded dynamically even when glibc is otherwise statically linked in (the linker in Solaris errors out if it encounters such a situation) . Now guess what happens if the statically linked libc dynloads nss modules that belong to glibc of a different version where the ABI changed Philipp -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
