Foliard,
You were right. The Walnut Creek GNU Ada CD had libc.5.0.9. No later
libc distributions exist on the disc. Since they are selling the CD as
the current Ada system (3.01), you would think they would have the
right libc. I am going to call them and request they return my money,
apply it on the next release.
I downloaded the libc.5.2.18 from sunsite.unc.edu, untarred it, ran
ldconfig, and the Ada works perfectly.
Again, thanks a lot.
