Re: [TCLUG:1903] Glibc Question



there are some differences between how glibc is installed between the
different distros.. teh main deal with slackware si that it does not use
the RPM package installer.. most slackware people i know would install
glibc from the source distribution. :) (any GNU site mirror)

Thank You,
