|
|
|
+ <br>
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ CodePoet Consulting is pleased to announce the immediate availability of
|
|
|
+ uClibc 0.9.20. This is primarily a bug-fix release. This release remains
|
|
|
+ binary compatible with 0.9.18 and 0.9.19, so you don't have to recompile
|
|
|
+ everything if you don't really feel like it.
|
|
|
+ <p>
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ This release has many small improvements. At this point, most applications
|
|
|
+ that compile and work with glibc will also compile and run with uClibc.
|
|
|
+ Perl and Python even pass all the tests in their test suites.
|
|
|
+ <p>
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ There is currently one notable exception. Applications with use dlopen()
|
|
|
+ to load libraries that themselves depend on other libraries, may have weak
|
|
|
+ symbols within those depended-upon libraries resolved incorrectly. This
|
|
|
+ problem is currently being worked on. Other than that, everything seems to
|
|
|
+ be working. And everything seems to now be working as expected....

|
|
|
+ <br>
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ The uClibc development systems for
|
|
|
+ <a href="http://www.uclibc.org/downloads/root_fs-i386.bz2">i386</a>,
|
|
|
+ <a href="http://www.uclibc.org/downloads/root_fs-powerpc.bz2">powerpc</a>,
|
|
|
+ <a href="http://www.uclibc.org/downloads/root_fs-arm.bz2">arm</a>,
|
|
|
+ <a href="http://www.uclibc.org/downloads/root_fs-mipsel.bz2">mips</a>,
|
|
|
+ have been updated to uClibc 0.9.20. Several problems have been fixed up,
|
|
|
+ gcc has been updated to version 3.3, and Perl 5.8.0 is now included.
|
|
|
+ <p>
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ This is a 150 MB ext2 filesystem that runs natively on the specified
|
|
|
+ architecture. It contains all the development software you need to build
|
|
|
+ your own uClibc applications, including bash, coreutils, findutils,
|
|
|
+ diffutils, patch, sed, ed, flex, bison, file, gawk, tar, grep gdb, strace,
|
|
|
+ make, gcc, g++, autoconf, automake, ncurses, zlib, openssl, openssh perl,
|
|
|
+ and more. And of course, everything is dynamically linked against uClibc. By
|
|
|
+ using a uClibc only system, you can avoid all the painful
|
|
|
+ cross-configuration problems that have made using uClibc somewhat painful
|
|
|
+ in the past. If you want to quickly get started with testing or using
|
|
|
+ uClibc you should give these images a try. You can loop mount and then
|
|
|
+ chroot into them, you can boot into them using user-mode Linux, and you can
|
|
|
+ even 'dd' them to a spare partition and use resize2fs to make them fill the
|
|
|
+ drive. Whatever works for you.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ <p> If you would like to build your own custom uClibc system, you can
|
|
|
+ use <a href="/cgi-bin/cvsweb/buildroot/">buildroot</a>, which is
|
|
|
+ how the uClibc development systems were created.
