| This directory contains the version VERSION test release of the GNU C Library. | |
| Many bugs have been fixed since the last release. | |
| Some bugs surely remain. | |
| As of this release, the GNU C library has been ported to the following | |
| configurations: | |
| alpha-dec-osf1 | |
| i[345]86-*-bsd4.3 | |
| i[345]86-*-gnu | |
| i[345]86-*-isc2.2 | |
| i[345]86-*-isc3 | |
| i[345]86-*-linux | |
| i[345]86-*-sco3.2 | |
| i[345]86-*-sco3.2v4 | |
| i[345]86-*-sysv | |
| i[345]86-*-sysv4 | |
| i[345]86-force_cpu386-none | |
| i[345]86-sequent-bsd | |
| i960-nindy960-none | |
| m68k-hp-bsd4.3 | |
| m68k-mvme135-none | |
| m68k-mvme136-none | |
| m68k-sony-newsos3 | |
| m68k-sony-newsos4 | |
| m68k-sun-sunos4 | |
| mips-dec-ultrix4 | |
| mips-sgi-irix4 | |
| sparc-sun-solaris2 | |
| sparc-sun-sunos4 | |
| Porting the library is not hard. If you are interested in doing a port, | |
| please get on the mailing list by sending electronic mail to | |
| bug-glibc-request@prep.ai.mit.edu. | |
| The GNU C library now includes Michael Glad's Ultra Fast Crypt, which | |
| provides the Unix `crypt' function, plus some other entry points. | |
| Because of the United States export restriction on DES implementations, | |
| we are distributing this code separately from the rest of the C | |
| library. There is an extra distribution tar file just for crypt; it is | |
| called `glibc-VERSION-crypt.tar.gz'. You can just unpack the crypt | |
| distribution along with the rest of the C library and build; you can | |
| also build the library without getting crypt. Users outside the USA | |
| can get the crypt distribution via anonymous FTP from ftp.uni-c.dk | |
| [129.142.6.74], or another archive site outside the USA. Archive | |
| maintainers are encouraged to copy this distribution to their archives | |
| outside the USA. Please get it from ftp.uni-c.dk; transferring this | |
| distribution from prep.ai.mit.edu (or any other site in the USA) to a | |
| site outside the USA is in violation of US export laws. | |
| See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, install, and port | |
| the GNU C library. | |
| The GNU C Library is completely documented by the Texinfo manual found | |
| in the `manual/' subdirectory. The manual is still being updated and | |
| contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not have | |
| the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like. Please | |
| send comments on the manual to bug-glibc-manual@prep.ai.mit.edu, and | |
| not to the library bug-reporting address. | |
| The file NOTES contains a description of the feature-test macros used | |
| in the GNU C library, explaining how you can tell the library what | |
| facilities you want it to make available. | |
| Send bug reports to bug-glibc@prep.ai.mit.edu. | |
| The GNU C Library is free software. See the file COPYING.LIB for copying | |
| conditions. |
