Description Felipe Alfaro Solana 2003-12-30 17:06:54 UTC

Description of problem: 
Starting with glibc-devel-2.3.3-2 the file /usr/lib/libc.so is a 
plain ASCII file with the following contents: 
 
/* GNU ld script 
   Use the shared library, but some functions are only in 
   the static library, so try that secondarily.  */ 
*** BUG in libc/scripts/output-format.sed *** elf32-i386,elf32-i386 
GROUP ( /lib/libc.so.6 /usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a ) 
 
This makes nearly impossible to compile anything while 
glibc-devel-2.3.3-2 is installed. Downgrading to glibc-devel-2.3.3-1 
fixes the problem. 
 
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 
glibc-devel-2.3.3-2 
 
How reproducible: 
Always 
 
Steps to Reproduce: 
1. Upgrade to glibc-devel-2.3.3-2 
   
Actual results: 
/usr/lib/libc.so is a plain ASCII file, when in fact it should be a 
dynamic library. 
 
Expected results: 
/usr/lib/libc.so should be a dynamic library.
