Base install of RH8 has glibc 2.0
I get a file not found now. Any solution? Works perfectly fine with RH7.2 base install
standard glibc on that machine.
Help?

I'm a bit baffled here. The system I am sitting at is RH8, and it has
glibc 2.2.93 (and no zlibc by default).

David,
Sorry my mistake. RH8 does have 2.2.93 by default. The problem is that I
can't get a version of zlibc to work on RH8 base install. 9j correctly
shows compressed files using "ls" however, using "cat" to test a
test.txt.gz
file ..the system says "file not found" when I use "cat test.txt" Do
you
have a version of zlibc that you know works for RH8?
Cheers,
Paul

Hello!
I had a similar problem and I got the following answer Alain Knaff:
Just try the zlibc-0.9j-20030205.diff.gz patch from
www.zlibc.linux.lu, it should work
and it worked.
I also couldn't compile zlibc in my RedHat-8.0 due to some error
in kernel_stat.h and Alain sent me then folowing kernel_stat.h:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
#ifndef KERNEL_STAT_H
#define KERNEL_STAT_H
/* Definition of `struct stat' used in the kernel.. */
struct kernel_stat
{
unsigned short int st_dev;
unsigned short int __pad1;

unsigned long int st_ino;
unsigned short int st_mode;

There were a number of smaller issues and typoes (double symbols,

should work a lot better.

The previous patch accidentally contained a number of compilation
files, which are cleaned up in the new one. Moreover, there was a
problem in the getxattr functions which is now fixed (confusion
between set and get), and another issue in the kernel_stat.h file.
Most of these issues showed up as problems during compilation.
I just made another patch, because the 20030525 patch contained
references to generated files in the reference copy.
If the problems still persist, could you please describe exactly what
happens (patch command said "Reversed (or previously applied) patch

Marnus thanks for the info. I wanted to make sure I wasn't doing something
wrong.
"more" and another program "marparse" are the programs that I need to
get
working...with marparse being the most important.
I sent Alain a verbose strace of marparse so Alain could see what calls were
being made and perhaps see where the code is
behaving differently.

I looked more closely into the issue, and noticed that glibc 2.3 has
changed the way how libc internal functions call other libc internal
functions. Formerly, they would pick up zlibc's replacements, but they
no longer do now (many libc function set up "hidden" definitions using
the libc_hidden_def macro, that can no longer be overriden by outside
programs).
Thus applications that direclty use open() continue to work with
zlibc, but those that use fopen64() don't, because fopen64() now
always calls libc's own open64, and never zlibc's.
I've notified Ulrich Drepper and Jakub Jelinek from the glibc
development team about the issue; hopefully we'll be able to work out
a solution together.
In the meantime, I'd suggest you downgrade to glibc 2.2

Alain

Alain,
this is the issue that we saw as well. open vs fopen. I hope you are able
to work it out!
I may have to leave certain machines on 7.2 to support the program marparse
until a solution
is resolved. Its easier than downgrading to 2.2.

Hi,
DLed http://www.zlibc.linux.lu/zlibc-0.9j.tar.gz and unpacked in /tmp/zlibc-0.9j/
DLed http://www.zlibc.linux.lu/zlibc-0.9j-20030205.diff.gz, unzipped and mv'ed to
/tmp/zlibc-0.9j/
# cd /tmp/zlibc-0.9j/
# ./configure (to create Makefile which is part of the patch.)
# patch < zlibc-0.9j-20030205.diff
# make
Then I set LD_PRELOAD=/tmp/zlibc-0.9j/uncompress.o and it worked so I did make
install.
This is on a stock RH8 installation and it worked first time with the patch.

can you let me know what you did? I don't see any difference in the latest

I still only get "cat" to work with zlibc.
Help???

Did you try the pach from zlibc.linux.lu ? It adresses a couple of

Alain,
I've tried 9i and 9j versions. Both work fine with Linux 7.2. However when
I try to use it on a fresh install of RH8, 9j translates the .gz file
correctly when I do an "ls" but if I try and use ..cat or something to test
it, it says
"file not found" So I'm a bit confused on what is happening here.
