Hey Benny!
I've never heard anyone using slackware ever complain about the
lack of proprietary apps before.
its like windows 10 never miss explore 11
Huh? I always though the Debian crowd to be more of the MS-ish types.
revdep-rebuild fix if some precompiled installs fails with
ldd /bin/bash
I have never seen that happen but now that you bring it up;
# ldd /bin/bash | tr -d '\t'
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffc85bf0000)
libreadline.so.8 => /lib/libreadline.so.8 (0x00007f9c5f829000)
libhistory.so.8 => /lib/libhistory.so.8 (0x00007f9c5f81d000)
libncursesw.so.6 => /lib/libncursesw.so.6 (0x00007f9c5f7c2000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f9c5f7bd000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007f9c5f637000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f9c5f87f000)
On my prior build (glibc-2.32) there was no /lib64 directory but barring that it seems to be working. I think file might be more entertaining;
# file /bin/bash
/bin/bash: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, stripped
Looks good.
or in slackware now ldd /bin/awk
# ldd /usr/bin/awk | tr -d '\t'
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffd4bd1d000)
libreadline.so.8 => /lib/libreadline.so.8 (0x00007fc922688000)
libmpfr.so.6 => /usr/lib/libmpfr.so.6 (0x00007fc92261c000)
libgmp.so.10 => /usr/lib/libgmp.so.10 (0x00007fc9225b5000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00007fc9225b0000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x00007fc92248f000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007fc922309000)
libncursesw.so.6 => /lib/libncursesw.so.6 (0x00007fc9222ac000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fc9226de000)
On this system /usr/bin/awk is a symlink to /usr/bin/gawk. Other than slackware putting it in /bin I think it is the same. Just a sec ...
From the slackware64-current gawk-5.1.0-x86_64-3.txz package I get the below;
$ ldd bin/gawk-5.1.0 | tr -d '\t'
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffee98ce000)
libsigsegv.so.2 => not found
libreadline.so.8 => /lib/libreadline.so.8 (0x00007fc98623a000)
libmpfr.so.6 => /usr/lib/libmpfr.so.6 (0x00007fc9861ce000)
libgmp.so.10 => /usr/lib/libgmp.so.10 (0x00007fc986167000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00007fc986162000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x00007fc986041000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007fc985eb9000)
libncursesw.so.6 => /lib/libncursesw.so.6 (0x00007fc985e5e000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fc986290000)
I seem to be missing libsigsegv which should be no problem to add into the mix.
https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libsigsegv/libsigsegv-2.13.tar.gz looks to be the latest and greatest. Other than that I don't see any issues.
you never used gentoo then
Nope. I briefly used an aarch64 version of gentoo to build an aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu toolchain about a year or two ago. That saved me from having to do a crosscompile just to create a half-decent pure 64-bit native development platform for raspberrypi. I might pick that up again in the near future.
why not keep it debian then ?
BAH!!! Never. Slackware is a zillion times better.
slackware only uses taballs, not db files
As it should be.
Life is good,
Maurice
