Slackware :: New Glibc Updates Made Kde3 Unstable In 12.2 And 64 13.0?
Nov 10, 2010
I've installed those updates :
glibc-2.7-i486-19_slack12.2
glibc-2.9_multilib-x86_64-5alien_slack13.0
Now many kde3 related apps crashes, forcing me to xkill and kill PID.I can't duplicate konqueror windows anymore, using the blue "k" icon top right. The window freezes. In Slack64 13.0, i even have a 100% cpu usage.Kwrite crashes from time to time.Erasing a file can crash konqueror etc.. Should i recompile all kde3 ? Should i recompile qt3 ?

I notice that these two packages contain the same files and uninstalling glibc-i18n doesn't uninstall the internationalization files, because they are also in the glibc package. Is this a mistake or is this normal or is there a reason for it ? I just made my own glibc package to fix this, but was wondering why this is the way it is...

I was well aware of the KDE trinity project from the start. Its so that users can have KDE 3 X alongside 4 X. The lucid release is due soon. Anyway I did try some releases a while back. I would like to know whether this project is very actively developed? What I mean is do they devlop security updates and maintainance patches regularly? Are there any actual KDE developers involved? (Some Kubuntu developers are)

Compiz seems to have had a bug where, upon using Compiz as the window manager, the mouse cursor would refuse to properly change after selecting a new theme. The workaround (altering the index.theme in/usr/share/icons/default) used to be a way around the issue... that is, until the latest Nautilus updates. Now even that won't let the cursor change, and I'm stuck with the issue of a Bluecurve cursor inside applications, but the default dmz-aa cursor on the desktop. Has anyone else found a way around this bug?

Im trying to recompile glibc from a working slackware-current system using source from a slackware mirror. I'm doing it for testing purpose only. Never done that before, so i'm not sure if i'm doing it right. I get the following error:
Code:
make[2]: Entering directory `/glibc-tmp-a44be92860d34519b0c9a4500878e2e6/glibc-2.11.1/iconvdata'

I've been working to get gcc up and running on a new install of Fedora 13. glibc-devel had dependencies upon installation where it required glibc and glibc-common, both 2.12.1-3. No problem, found both at rpm dot pbone dot net. However, when I try to install the following circular dependency results... it doesn't matter the order of install.
Code:
[root AT localhost gcc_install]# rpm -ivh glibc-common-2.12.1-3.x86_64 .rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
glibc = 2.12.1-3 is needed by glibc-common-2.12.1-3.x86_64

OS : Oracle Enter Prise Linux 6 (equivalent to RedHat)
I am in process to install oracle 10g on said OS.My process fails and after digging up , I came to know that some of the oracle libraries are compiled on 32-bit architecture and it require glibc-32 bit . also it require for gcc-32 bit.
Now i have downloaded all the required rpm for gcc-32bit . when I try to install glibc and its dependencies , it gives me error that newer version already exist.
How can I install , Gcc-32bit(libgc, libstd-i386 etc) in parallel or standalone?

I made an update of my Centos 5.5 yesterday. In doing so glibc has been updated to glibc.i686. Just now some of my FPGA tools crash. Unfortunately there isn't a downgrade for glibc.i686. How can I replace glibc.i686 by glibc.i386?A simple yum install glibc.i386 conflicts with the files from package glibc-2.5-65.i686
yum list glibc

I'm running Slackware current. After the recent glibc change, ImageMagick display is exhibiting bad behaviour. I open an image with display, left-click on it to get the menus, move the mouse down so I can click on Transform, but before I get there, it crashes and displays this message code...
Has anyone else seen this? Is there a fix for it?

I am running Slackware64-current(multi-lib) and I have stumbled across something that I don't fully understand.I have read that the kernel-headers should not be updated as glibc is compiled against them and therefore requires that set of kernel headers. Recently the kernel version has been bumped a couple of times but glibc has stayed the same.Should glibc be re-compiled each time there is a kernel update?
Perhaps someone can explain, in very simple terms, the relationship between the kernel, the kernel headers, the kernel modules and glibc.

I am in very much need to resolve the issue of Upgrade redhat5 from glibc 2.5 to glibc 2.7. The problem is when I run a binary compiled on our build setup (glibc 2.11) on Suse 11 (glibc 2.9) it works fine...
But the same binary do not work on redhat enterprise version 5 telling error as need glibc2.7 or sometimes segmentation fault for the same binary execution.
I tried upgrading the redhat glibc 2.5 to glibc 2.7, but not successful.

Is there an app that you can run before installing a new package etc and then after the install that will show you all the changes that occurred on your system as a result of installing the new package?

I've noticed that this symlink was pointing to /var/X11R6, which doesn't exist on my system, which is running a newly installed copy of Slackware 13.1. Upon investigation, it was made by the doinst.sh script from the aaa_base package. The script looks for /usr/X11R6/lib/X11, and is supposed to create the /var/X11R6 symlink if the directory exists. The problem is that the aaa_base package is installed first, no? On a clean system, there is no X11 directory for it to link to. The offending part of the script:
Code:
# Did anything ever use this? I don't know, but if we're keeping all
# this other garbage then it probably won't hurt:
if [ -d usr/X11R6/lib/X11 ]; then
( cd var ; rm -rf X11R6 )
( cd var ; ln -sf ../usr/X11R6/lib/X11 X11R6 )
elif [ -d usr/X11R6/lib64/X11 ]; then

Yesterday, I think I did something stupid: I removed kernel-headers, gcc, glibc-devel and glibc-headers. My box is a CentOS 5.4 webserver (it has loads of packages installed, but that was done through Virtualmin config, so it's quite coherent all in all). The thing is that now I need to reinstall at least the headers and glibc, but hey! this is what I get :

Like others here it seems I had problems with the latest -current. I can't startx, no sound, etc. I put back the video drivers and such from the 13 CD but now have a bunch of other issues, video will flash every now and then and sometimes go blank so I can only reboot as exiting xwindows and going back in its still blank. I tried booting from the 13 cd and reinstalling without formatting my root partition but that dies in the kde games for some reason and setup won't start again. I was trying to not format and loose all the updates just put back 13 but that doesn't seem to be working.

I looked at the security adviseries page on slackware.org, and noticed only 1 listing for 2010. I'm currently using alien bob's slackware-current script to make a dvd iso (x86_64.) So is this patch already applied or what? How do I go about maintaining a secure system from here? I've tried to search for clues about this but I'm a little confused (very new to slackware,) so I apologize if this question has been answered many times. Also, when a security advisery arrives, do I need to download the updated package? Or can I simply find a patch from a single source and download / apply them? What would you do concerning this issue? I guess easily applying security updates is where debian shines. I'm really starting to like Slackware though, I must admit.

After applying the 31st Jan and 1st Feb updates to -current (32 bit), alt-tab to switch between windows is no longer working in kde. It seems to lock the desktop and then after a few seconds kde goes back to the login screen. If I disable all desktop effects then alt-tab works again.

I did a multilib64 install but I am new. I use slackpkg for updates and its recommended to blacklist all kernel ,glibc and gcc updates. In the past with slackware32 I edited /etc/slackpkg/blacklist to uncomment the kernel but it still updated the kernel. This time I used the command line 'slackpkg blacklist kernel', and the same for glibc and gcc. It brings up all packages in the window and askes what to blacklist. Is this all I need to blacklist? I thought there would be to many libs to list or are they lumped in the 4 or 5 listed.

For anyone interested in testing new xorg stuff, here it is: [URL]. The good news is that this package set should work fine in either 13.1 or -current. The build box is 13.1, so I know they're compatible there; however, I'm running them on both 13.1 and -current systems, so I'm pretty sure they'll work on either. Be sure to read the NOTES file before you go digging around in PACKAGES.

I am looking for a way to track updates or changes to open source software, in other words I want automatic notification when new releases are made.
Is there any single place or easy way to do that? Again, What I am looking for is notification when, for example, firefox ver 3.1.2 is released, or when kde releases 4.4.5, k3b makes a major change, etc, etc, etc.
Anyone have any idea how I could accomplish this?
