As I recall trying to upgrade glibc on dsl via apt-get doesn't  work out too well.  But maybe I didn't perservere.

Let us know how you get on.

Looking at the debian site, you would need to get libc6 (v2.6.1) from "testing" as the version in "stable" is 2.3.6 - as WDef says, this is not going to be easy...

Hi All,

First post so first many thanks for DSL as it is.  A nice piece of work...

So, to the problem, I'm trying to use the SqueezeSlave audio player from Slimdevices under DSL and get the same error as above.  What is the best solution?  To upgrade glibc or to recompile the player for DSL?  

Many thanks.

Maybe the first step is to try to compile the player on dsl - if you're lucky, it will work with the version of libc6 in dsl.

If you're not lucky, then you have the choice of trying to use dpkg/apt-get for a later version of libc6 (not obvious) or compiling a later version of libc6 on dsl (again not obvious, 1GB of ram was not enough for me to recompile the same version of libc6 as that on dsl, albeit with a frugal install...).
