Description Ward Wouts 2006-11-16 14:44:31 UTC
Description of problem:

While trying to compile keepalived I noticed that the glibc-kernheaders for FC4
are for a 2.4.9 kernel, while FC4 has always used a 2.6.x kernel. This messes up
the detection of the kernel version code gets compiled against and very likely
produces a binary which won't work correctly on a 2.6.x kernel.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Try to build keelalived (http://www.keepalived.org/download.html) on a FC4
system and carefully wath the output.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:


Expected results:

This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd.

Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and
either update the target product or close it ?

Thanks.

In FC6 het glibc-kernheaders rpm doesn't exist any more as it's replaced by the
kernel-headers rpm. Which is in sync with the kernel version.
