hmmm, this is weird.  Since I upgraded to your set of glibc, I can't seem
to run Dselect anymore. :)   (and dpkg gives me a bunch of errors too). 

I can't get into the 'select' section of Dselect, and 'update' generates
errors,  but seems to chug along.

here they are:

-- while running dpkg --

Anyway, any help would be appriciated. :) 

So far, I havn't found anything else broken.... and Netscape runs pretty
nicely.  But I think I need a faster Sparc... my little 85Mhz SS5 is a bit
overworked while running netscape. :)

thanks
