I have installing programs from scratch, and I found out that many of the program versions that are needed for v2.2 which are in the potato distribution need libc6 2.1 in order to run. I was just wondering if somebody had made a version of them that runs with libc6 2.0. Something like netbase_3.12-2_i386, which is from potato but is compiled to run ok on slink. -- p.
