The distribution is just backwards compatible, not forwards compatible. If you want a program which will run on 7.2/AS2.1 too, you need to compile it there or at least against its libraries. Is compiling with gcc 3.2.2 and statically linking a safe strategy? The binaries should work on almost all RHL systems. We have several customers using RHL 7.x, RHAS 2.1 and soon RHL 9. They are neither able nor willingly to switch their systems. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030312 Description of problem: Program compiled with gcc 2.96-118 under Red Hat Linux 9 does not run under Red Hat Advanced Server 2.1 nor Red Hat Linux 7.2 although all dynamic libraries can be found. ldd complains about installed libpthread.so.0, missing GLIBC_2.3.2. Must the RHL 7.2 system be upgraded to glibc 2.3.2? Is it wise to do so? There is no glibc 2.3.2 update for RHAS 2.1, so what should be done there? Would linking libpthread statically on RHL 9 be a safe option? Is there a chance to run gcc 3.2.2 compiled binaries on RHAS 2.1/RHL 7.2? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gcc 2.96-118 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Write a C++ program that uses threads on RHL 9 2.Compile it with g++296 3.Copy the program to a RHAS 2.1 or RHL 7.2 machine 4.Try to run it or use ldd to see it fail Actual Results: [user@host user]$ ldd prg ./prg: /lib/libpthread.so.0: version `GLIBC_2.3.2' not found (required by ./prg) libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x4001f000) libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 => /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 (0x40036000) libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x40079000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x4009b000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000) Additional info:
