Hi Steve. It seems you always understand the s of sbin as meaning "static". it isn't. Look at Devuan binaries in /sbin and /usr/sbin; they are dynamically linked. s stands for "system". # file /bin/mount /bin/mount: setuid ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, BuildID[sha1]=82eb1fdddc0083f599c4072f4e1a39e28de6c759, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, stripped What is called "interpreter" here is the dynamic linker associated to the shared version of gcc, the Gnu C library. There is practically no statically linked application in a Debian distribution, except some part of debootstrap. -- Didier _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
