That would require a new dpkg architecture and other changes, e.g. you could build for linuxuclibc-i386 instead of linux-i386. The avr32 people tried to make a µClibc-based Debian port and eventually failed, because the whole OS is much too dependent on glibc and GNUisms, and because of the quality… The other libc ports (Debian/{free,net}bsd (as opposed to Debian/kFreeBSD), the Interix port, the Minix port, etc.) also mostly failed – sure, there are or were demonstrations, but the limitations prevented them from ever taking off. > > Full disclosure: I do have commits in µClibc-ng. > > So you can further help to get stuff going ;) I’ve already told you I’d prefer to see it die, and the only thing preventing that is nommu support in more sane libcs. bye, //mirabilos -- [16:04:33] bkix: "veni vidi violini" [16:04:45] bkix: "ich kam, sah und vergeigte"...
