It is a problem with libc, checkout http://members.ping.at/theofilu/netscape.html Neal -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Under the spotlight this week is Xirc, but as usual, nothing works straight away. I'm having problems compiling this proggie. The docs clearly state that libc5.4.7 is used and Xforms.081 minimum as well. I installed libc5.4.7 binaries from sunsite (why is the debian one only at 5.2.18?) and installed xforms0.81-3 via the excellent dpkg-ftp thingy. Compile error follows; make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/xirc/src/dcc' g++ -g -DDEBUG -I.. -O2 -Wall -c get.C -o get.o In file included from get.C:8: ../xirc.H:8: forms.h: No such file or directory In file included from ../xirc.H:54, I was getting string.h and iostream.h errors but fixed this by installing the g++ libs, it appears to be a c++ prog. duh! :) But the forms.h error refuses to budge. The Xirc docs state that if this error appears then installing the latest xforms0.81 lib cures it. But I've done this and it still persists, unless it isn't installed properly. (xforms-dev is installed too). Kernel 2.0.0 btw. Has anyone successfully compiled this beastie? Anyone seen this error or could anyone possibly mail me the compiled binary? Also, if anyone knows of a decent X irc client then could they let me know. After searching about the only ones I'ce found are ircii/BitchX, disgusting clients, and Zircon which tries quite hard but is far to quirky and like chucking too many windows about to be likable. Something similar to mirc or Amiga's Grapevine wouldn't go amiss methinks.
