A John Wilson has been emailing me, trying to get my pre-compiled version of XFractint running on his computer. He got the error message:
xfractint: /lib/libc.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.1.3' not found (required by xfractint)
On my computer, /lib/libc.so.6 was a link pointing to /lib/libc-2.2.4.so. I sent him libc-2.2.4.so, and gave him instructions on how to create the link. He says he is *still* getting the same error message after installing the library file and creating the link.
And he ran 'ldconfig' too?
Does anyone have any ideas as to how to resolve this problem? Could it be his version of glibc?
Most likely. I'm not sure if throwing just libc-2.2.5.so in there will work. The glibc package for my distro (Slackware) contains the following libraries: ld-2.2.5.so libBrokenLocale-2.2.5.so libanl-2.2.5.so libc-2.2.5.so libcrypt-2.2.5.so libdb-3.1.so libdb1.so.2.1.3 libdb2.so.3 libdl-2.2.5.so libm-2.2.5.so libmemusage.so libnsl-2.2.5.so libnss_compat-2.2.5.so libnss_db-2.2.so libnss_dns-2.2.5.so libnss_files-2.2.5.so libnss_hesiod-2.2.5.so libnss_nis-2.2.5.so libnss_nisplus-2.2.5.so libpcprofile.so libpthread-0.9.so libresolv-2.2.5.so librt-2.2.5.so libthread_db-1.0.so libutil-2.2.5.so libSegFault.so It'll probabilly be easiest just to grab a full glibc package for whichever distro he's using. (For slackware the file needed is ftp://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware-8.1/slackware/a/glibc-solibs-2.2.5-i386-2.tgz )
