You're right about Libc5, but I need it for uClibc. Besides it surprisingly does not compile for MIPS, as it misses many parts of MIPS assembly code, usually found under sysdep part of ld.so. > The equivalent for libc6 aka glibc 2 is part of glibc. The whole idea behind uClibc was to get rid of that huge chunk of memory-wasting package, and I do not mean to use any part of it. Unless you can tell me how ld.so of glibc can be compiled standalone :-) > Florian, can you remove this package from Debian/MIPS? Florian, please, if you still have sources, can you tell me where they are?
