Within the next two weeks I hope I can install and test KYLIX (Delphi for Linux from inprise/Borland) on our FreeBSD 4.3 machines. Borland offers a pretest programm which is supposed to reveal problems with several installations. And, I regret, the basic Linux distribution brought with FreeBSD has a bug. Now I'm to be to change a patched glibc offered by Borland for RedHat 6.2. And this task opens up an other question: Several components compiled under Linux with Fortran 95 need newer XFree libraries and modern Linux libs. Is it possible to install a complete new Linux facility, like RedHat 7.1? -- MfG O.
