compile glibc with the gs option
Hi, I want to build glibc with an option to use the GS segment register to address certain pthread-specific state, just as the default glibc build in RedHat. Anyone has an idea how to do it in SuSe 8.0? thanks in advance. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

In your CD/DVD set look for the unsupported directory what you want is prebuilt as an rpm -- Togan Muftuoglu Unofficial SuSE FAQ Maintainer http://dinamizm.ath.cx
Togan, thanks for your reply. One more confusion though: Should I "rpm -i" to install it or "rpm -U" to update it? After I overwrite the origianl one, could I restore it to the original one by using Yast2? Or even better could I have two versoin of glibc? thanks a lot! --- Togan Muftuoglu <toganm@dinamizm.com> wrote:

Since you have glibc already installed I would use either -F or -U switch. Most probably yes for your YaST2 question. However since it is in the unsupported section that means YaST2 may bark about it since the version number of the package will not match to the one YaST2 is comparing to.

why ? -- Togan Muftuoglu Unofficial SuSE FAQ Maintainer http://dinamizm.ath.cx

Hi, After I replace SuSe default glibc-2.2.5-28 with glibc-2.2.5-26 in the unsorted directory, IBM java2 virtual machine seems can't find the shared libs libpthread.so.0. But if I "ldd java", I found java is linked to /lib/libpthread.so.0 which is install in the same place on my machine. Furthermore Yast2 breaks -- it comes up ok, but when I try to add or unstall something, it stucks in intializing. I attached the screen output below. Any suggestion is appreciated, linux:/tmp/glibc-i686 # rpm -Uvh --force glibc-2.2.5-26.i686.rpm glibc ################################################## linux:/tmp/glibc-i686 # rpm -q glibc glibc-2.2.5-26 linux:/tmp/glibc-i686 # java /usr/lib/java/jre/bin/exe/java: error while loading shared libraries: libpthread .so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory linux:/usr/lib/java/jre/bin/exe # ldd java libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x40023000) libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0x40039000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x4004f000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40053000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000) linux:/lib # ls -l libpthread.so.0 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 101574 Feb 23 09:29 libpthread.so.0 --- Togan Muftuoglu <toganm@dinamizm.com> wrote:

have you run SuSEconfig after the install ps. let me grab my own copy from the list no need to CC me -- Togan Muftuoglu Unofficial SuSE FAQ Maintainer http://dinamizm.ath.cx
Thanks for the tip. I didn't run SuSeconfig. I will try it tonight. Is it a default procedure to update system configuration using SuSeconfig after installing a new package? I have thought rpm would update the configuration automatically. By the way where can I find such information as how to install, update system package without going through Yast2, or find a way to instruct Yast2 to use a specific build version of a package. thanks --- Togan Muftuoglu <toganm@dinamizm.com> wrote:

Depends on tha package however in most cases it would not hurt. With glibc I would have done the update in Single run level issue SuSEConfig and then continue with the normal runlevel ie init 3 or init 5. -- Togan Muftuoglu Unofficial SuSE FAQ Maintainer http://dinamizm.ath.cx
