      Hi Paul,              On 2017-08-09 18:09:11, you wrote to me:               WvV>> At least it didn't crash right away! ;)               PQ> You're sick & twisted, just like me. I was expecting the same thing. :)              Part of your job as a software developper is imagining what can go wrong and       adapt your code to it. So being a pesimist makes you a good developper. ;)               PQ>>> More on this later, once I get out of bed. :)               WvV>> I'll stay tuned...               PQ> No improvement. I took the binaries to my test vBox, did a 'blind'       install        PQ> of the libc.so.6 package available for Puppy (i.e. not knowing if it was        PQ> already installed). Then rebooted (eek! it's second reboot in a year!).        PQ> Re-ran "./fmail[Enter]" and this time got two error lines. The first error        PQ> referred to libc.so.6 as being from GLIBC 2.7 and then the second error as        PQ> for the first, above.               PQ> I suspect a glitch in your 64-bit configs but take that with a grain of        PQ> salt, as I am not even a 'novice' in such things. I'm hanging out for a        PQ> makefile solution, for a local build. I've already been working on        PQ> solutions for my predicament since March last year. I can wait. :)              I'll try building a statically linked binary again first. Maybe just ftools as       that would be more simple as a test case...               PQ> I may try another vBox of a more modern OS but that be months away...              That would be better! ;)              Bye, Wilfred.              --- FMail-lnx64 2.1.0.17-B20170711        * Origin: FMail development HQ (2:280/464)    |
