On 16-May-98 Seth E. Randall playfully chanted:

| configure:929: checking whether the C compiler (gcc  ) works
| configure:943: gcc -o conftest    conftest.c  1>&5
| /usr/lib/crt1.o(.text+0xe): undefined reference to `__libc_init_first'

| configure: failed program was:

| ...
| I currently running the latest versions of glibc, glibc-devel, gcc,
| binutils, and all the graphics libraries
| (I pulled all the RPMs off of rufus.w3.org today), and even tried

| Can anyone help??

Woof, I dunno.  The only thing I can suggest is to ask whether you installed
libc in /usr/local/lib or /usr/lib and then ran ldconfig?  Made sure you don't
have the old libc lying around so that it gets used instead of the glibc2 by
gcc?  That you don't have a /usr/local copy of gcc so that it gets ignored
because your old gcc is still there?

RPM is fine for most purposes, I guess.  But it can't detect non-RPM materials
on your harddrive because it relies on a previously-written RPM
"install" database.
