recompile glibc for NPTL

[mahirsayar]

i have been a gentoo user for many years and now i am a fc3 user. i love it.

how would i recompile glibc to compile with nptl ???

can someone help please

[mccabemt]

I'm pretty sure glibc is already compiled with NPTL. It would make sense for it to be at least, seeing that Redhat did most of the development.

thats the house put of my /lib/libc.so.6 file thingi
no nptl

[Jman]

Start by getting the source rpm for the latest glibc. It's located here and ends in src.rpm. You'll want to figure out how to edit the spec file to change the build command. Unfortuantely, I'm not familiar with this.

and its not working
