Hello, people,
I need a very critical change in my Debian system, and I don't wanna take
the chance of doing it wrong, so ...
I need to downgrade my glibc from 2.1.3 to 2.0.7 in a Debian 2.2 (Potato)
system, so that I can compile utilities for LRP (Linux Router Project) in
it. How can I do that _safely_ using apt-get, dpkg, or the like??
I'm guessing the answer will be "you can do it, but you'll break other
glibc-2.1-based applications"... Pls tell me this is not true ... :))
Please let me know, any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Later,
Ivan
