apt-get synaptic: ldconfig complains libraries are not symbolic links (and other errors maybe)

2007-01-19 Thread massimo s.
Hi everyone, I was trying to apt-get synaptic on K14, but apt-get got stuck on these errors: --- Setting up libglib2.0-0 (2.12.6-2) ... ldconfig: /lib/libldap_r-2.3.so.0 is not a symbolic link ldconfig: /lib/libldap-2.3.so.0 is not a symbolic link ldconfig: /lib/liblber-2.3.so.0

ldconfig missing in glibc-2.3.5

2005-05-30 Thread Michael Banck
Hi, so glibc-2.3.5 from experimental builds fine on Debian GNU/Hurd if one adds --without-tls (see #309489). However, binary-arch fails as the ldconfig patch got disabled by gotom, while the build system still tries to install it and fails. As I am not sure whether Jeff still got time

Please fix the build system instead of installing ldconfig and patching glibc to support it on Debian GNU/Hurd. If Debian GNU/Hurd needs a ldconfig for compatbility with Debian GNU/Linux then one should make ldconfig just call /bin/true. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED

systems also Robbe don't have reason 1, so there is currently no real ldconfig Robbe program on the Hurd. Rather than writing a program that's Robbe completely pointless, I'd rather we called ldconfig Robbe correcly, i.e. with the -X parameter. ldconfig -X will Robbe just

mandate ldconfig -X?

2001-05-31 Thread Robert Bihlmeyer
I propose that instead of calling ldconfig, maintainer scripts of packages containing shared libraries should call ldconfig -X. Background: ldconfig has two purposes: 1. For each shared library, create/update a symbolic link from the library's soname to the library file. The link is only

to remember to keep the soname up-to-date in this command. Or she uses an automatic method: ldconfig -n or a reimplementation of the same functionality. I think using ldconfig -n is the right thing. It should be supported. Sure, the cache-rebuilding part of ldconfig is of no use on the Hurd. But the link
