I saw this package on freshmeat and went to check it out. The first line follows: ####################################################### Newsflash: Mondo doesn't work on SuSE 6.4 because SuSE 6.4 has an incomplete Glibc package. Go figure. ###################################################### Does anyone have any info on this glibc shortfall?

I do not know which problem with SuSE-6.4 glibc they encountered, but I found one yesterday trying to compile festival: they have their libtermcap.a library and libtermcap.so link stuck in the directory /usr/lib/termcap/ instead of /usr/lib/ for some reason without including /usr/lib/termcap/ in the ld configuration. (This was the first problem with SuSE-6.4 glibc I found, but it might be the one they are referring to because the error message can take a while to figure out -- I just did a:

ln -s /usr/lib/libtermcap.so.2.0.8 /usr/lib/libtermcap.so

but I am still very curious why they thought the link should be in /usr/lib/termcap/ and would love to hear their reason, since they seem to be the only distribution to put it there.

You might have broken your installation :) This is what I have (German SuSE-6.4-0): # find /usr/lib -name 'libtermcap*' | while read a; do ls -l $a; rpm -q -f $a ;done -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 11496 Mar 11 11:16 /usr/lib/termcap/libtermcap.a termcap-2.0.8-149 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 May 4 15:56 /usr/lib/termcap/libtermcap.so -> /usr/lib/libtermcap.so.2 termcap-2.0.8-149 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 May 4 15:57 /usr/lib/libtermcap.so.2 -> libtermcap.so.2.0.8 termcap-2.0.8-149 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 15386 Mar 11 11:16 /usr/lib/libtermcap.so.2.0.8 termcap-2.0.8-149 Ralf -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq
