Hi, |
| 2 |
|

I setup a separate Gentoo install to play with. Why try installing gcc3? Instead of building a new ISO image based on gcc3 what I did was: |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
boot rc6-r14 CD |
| 6 |
do everything up to & including emerge rsync |
| 7 |
modify profile to use gcc-3.0.3 and made a new ebuild for glibc which applies a patch I found on the glibc mailing list. This patch is "supposed" to fix the c++ exception problem. I doesn't patch glibc's configure so I had to do that to stop the annoying gcc3 warning/exit message. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
Doing it this way, emerge system only fails on netkit-telnetd which I was able to patch. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
But... something had to go wrong and passwd doesn't work. Entering passwd results in the message "passwd: Module is unknown" |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
I played with recomping pwdb-0.61, gcc3 is definitely stricter with ansi-c. PAM's configure script fails when it builds a test program using the pwdb_db_name() function. |
| 14 |
The test program fails to link. gcc is looking for symbol yp_get_default_domain and other symbols which seem to be related to nis. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
I checked libpwdb.so.0.61 with nm... |
| 17 |
T pwd_db_name it is present in the text section of the lib |
| 18 |
U yp_get_default_domain@@GLIBC_2.0 it's undefined. |
| 19 |
U strcat@@GLIBC_2.0 |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
I assume U means symbols undefined in this library but should exist in another, such as glibc? |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Anyone have any ideas or should I just be patient for a fully gcc3 based setup. |
| 24 |
|

TIA |
