It could not be much more clear.. http://support.us.stardiv.com/sis/Source/Antwort.asp?ProblemID=2007034&SStichwID=59&SOSLinkID=480&NMin=0 Question Does StarOffice 5.1 works with glibc-2.1? Answer Yes, StarOffice 5.1 works with glibc-2.1 For StarOffice 5.0, the major glibc-2.1 based distributions like RedHat 6.0 and Caldera OpenLinux 2.2 include a special version of StarOffice 5.0, which should work with glibc-2.1 without problems. -- Christopher Masto Senior Network Monkey NetMonger Communications chris@netmonger.net info@netmonger.net http://www.netmonger.net Free yourself, free your machine, free the daemon -- http://www.freebsd.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message
