Munir> ppds are text files... you dont compile them All I know is what I read: # Return the appropriate version string DetectLIBC() { status=1 if [ `uname -s` != Linux ]; then echo "glibc-2.1" return $status fi if [ -f `echo /lib/libc.so.6* | tail -1` ]; then if fgrep GLIBC_2.1 /lib/libc.so.6* 2> $NULL >> $NULL; then echo "glibc-2.1" status=0 else echo "glibc-2.0" status=0 fi elif [ -f /lib/libc.so.5 ]; then echo "libc5" status=0 else echo "unknown" fi return $status } And there's a bin component to the Samsung distribution. I don't know why --- it's too user-friendly to tell me :-( and I've always lived in happy ignorance of unix printing internals before...
