Package: libc6 Version: 2.13-5 --- Please enter the report below this line. ---
I was able to complete an upgrade of libc6 on an old i386 box I run, which had its last reinstall in October 2007. During the installation Xorg lost video, so I had to complete the installation via an ssh connection. /lib/ld* after the installation looks like this: /lib$ ls -l ld* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Jun 6 11:08 ld-linux.so.2 -> i386-linux-gnu/ld-2.13.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Mar 5 11:54 ld-lsb.so.1 -> ld-linux.so.2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Mar 5 11:54 ld-lsb.so.2 -> ld-linux.so.2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Mar 5 11:54 ld-lsb.so.3 -> ld-linux.so.2 I wanted to include what /lib/ld* looked like before the upgrade, but because I lost X I also lost the terminal I was working in where I had that information ready. However, what I recall seeing was that there was an ld-2.13.so file in /lib directly before the upgrade. Examination of libc6_2.13-4_i386.deb and libc6_2.13-5_i386.deb via 'debdiff' confirms this: $ debdiff libc6_2.13-4_i386.deb libc6_2.13-5_i386.deb ... Files in second .deb but not in first ------------------------------------- ... -rwxr-xr-x root/root /lib/i386-linux-gnu/ld-2.13.so -rwxr-xr-x root/root /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc-2.13.so -rwxr-xr-x root/root /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libpthread-2.13.so lrwxrwxrwx root/root /lib/i386-linux-gnu/ld-linux.so.2 -> ld-2.13.so ... Files in first .deb but not in second ------------------------------------- ... -rwxr-xr-x root/root /lib/ld-2.13.so -rwxr-xr-x root/root /lib/libc-2.13.so -rwxr-xr-x root/root /lib/libpthread-2.13.so lrwxrwxrwx root/root /lib/ld-linux.so.2 -> ld-2.13.so So there is a change in ld file location in this upgrade. -- Chris -- Chris Knadle chris.kna...@coredump.us --- System information. --- Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux 2.6.37.6-686-crk4 Debian Release: wheezy/sid 500 unstable www.debian-multimedia.org 500 unstable ftp.us.debian.org 1 experimental ftp.us.debian.org --- Package information. --- Depends (Version) | Installed =======================-+-=========== libc-bin (= 2.13-5) | 2.13-5 libgcc1 | 1:4.6.0-11 Recommends (Version) | Installed =========================-+-=========== libc6-i686 | 2.13-5 Suggests (Version) | Installed ==========================-+-=========== glibc-doc | debconf | 1.5.39 OR debconf-2.0 | locales | 2.13-5 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
