Hi again all,
Is there anyone out there using RH 5.0, 5.1, or 5.2 that is able to use the GPC binary to compile pascal code? I have a Slackware install @ home that runs without a problem but I just installed RH 5.1 @ work and have the same old problems I used to have. If I recall correctly, a solution was never found.
Hints??? Ideas???? Solutions??? Anything would be appreciated!!!

Probably a library thing. RH5.x use the glibc2 library (a.k.a. libc-6.x) while Slackware use libc-5.4.x. The libraries are not compatible. You'll have to find a libc-6.x gpc binary to run on RH5.x or you'll have to bulid one yourself.

The gpc-19980830 binary that comes with Debian is compiled against libc-6. Please get one from your next Debian mirror.
(There are specific tools to install `.deb' packages, but they are in fact `ar' archives.)
Hope this helps,
