To solve your problem you can either install the compat21 package which includes this version, or you can try create a symbolic link from libc.so.3.0 to libc.so.2.2. Unless you have a lot of programs that still require version 2.2, this should work for you. -- Sascha Blank - mailto:blank@fox.uni-trier.de Student and System Administrator at the University of Trier, Germany Finger my account to receive my Public PGP key I don't speak for my employers, they don't pay me enough for that.
