Hey Benny!   
      
    BP> i have only 2.25,   
      
   I noticed that.  Most of the packages I use are up to date with 2.26 but I   
   understand why many would avoid it at this point in time.

   Understood.  I still haven't checked out if the drm driver works again with   
   linux-4.15 kernels but for sure linux-4.9 kernels did.   
      
    MK>>         BIND-8.2.3-T5B   
      
    BP> bind8 still in use ?   
      
   I am guessing it is a compatibilty issue.  What does /lib/libc.so.6 report on   
   your system?   
      
    BP> do you like to try elfutils ?   
      
   Only since linux-4.14 kernels.  Also I know that it is a dependency for efi   
   booting, not that I am currently using efi booting.
