A few remarks: I know that some users use a mixed environment (uclibc, libc225), but I have to point to the fact, that such a setup is not supported by Bering-uClibc crew. The libc* packages has been provided to make testing and migration a bit easier during development of Bering-uClibc, but we can't support problems that will arise from mixing libs. The libc*.lrp's will provided in the future, but will neither be supported, nor upgraded - specific packages compiled against uClibc are highly preferred. Today Bering-uClibc is the only LEAF distro providing ipv6 support and Linux kernel 2.4.24 - if anyone needs one or both of this features, it's the LEAF flavour of choice. kp ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
