When I said "GLIBC is part of your system" re-read that as it is a vital part of your system and one could say that GLIBC *IS* your system. So, I would be really *REALLY* careful about arbitrarily deciding to install a new GLIBC. I less potentially fatal solution could be to follow idea of rebuilding gdb against your current GLIBC if that is possible. At the worst, gdb still doesn't work :-) I have never tried to build gdb but I have first hand experience of making a system unstable by building and installing GLIBC inappropriatly. Not a pleasant experience :-( -- ------------------------------------------------- -- Merge vertically for real address -- -- s n p @ t . o -- k i e k c c m -------------------------------------------------
