Re: [Xen-users] Debian XenSpecificGlibc
Hi,
I had compiled a XenSpecificGlibc on an etch dom0. After installing it
on dom0 and an etch domU, the warning stopped as expected.
Now I have installed a sarge dom0 and after installing the previously
compiled libc6, the warning does not go away.
Why could this be?
Chris.
