I'm trying to bullet-proof my kernel maint.
Right now, I see the following dependency cascade:
linux-2.4.19 requires
glibc-2.2.5 requires
gcc-3.2 requires
binutils-2.12.90.0.15 requires
gettext-0.11.5
I stumbled onto the gettext req when running the lot
on a couple of systems where we neglected to install it from the distro.
(Worth noting, along with a bazillion other reqs like shells!)
What else might be omitted? (naughty!)
The tool chain appears to fork:
strace-4.4 requires
gdb-5.2.1 requires
glibc-2.2.5 ... and so on ...
where both the kernel and GDB need GLIBC
but do not depend on each other (and 'strace' needs GDB?).
It's been *months* since I twiddled this. So I'm checking
my work, making a list. ("and checking it twice!") Thoughts?
Thanks!
