Problems with redhat 8 updated to glibc 2.3.2

[Mike Hearn]

Hi,

I've just had 3 consecutive reports of practically the same failure on
redhat 8 with the latest security updates. Basically, nothing works, the
wineinstall script messes up and fails to import the initial registry
(it seems to get the fstab parsing wrong as well?) and when run wine
reports exceptions like this:

17:36 <ChipX86> trace:seh:EXC_RtlRaiseException code=c0000005 flags=0

(pasted from irc)

Can somebody with an up to date redhat box who doesn't mind being a
sacrificial lamb look into this? I thought compiling with --with-nptl
would fix these problems. BTW all these people were using CVS as of
about 10 minutes ago.

thanks -mike

I compiled it this morning on a fully patched Red Hat 8.0 box and it 
imported the registry just fine. I didn't use wineinstall, but the 
process to build rpms is mimmicking wineinstall quite closely. Note that 
you shouldn't use ./configure's --with-nptl switch, as RedHat 8.0 
doesn't use NPTL.

I'll install the produced rpm and tell you what I can gather (I'll be 
talking to it via ssh w/o X, so it won't be thorough).

I didn't have a problem running simple command-line programs. We're 
talking about boxes using the glibc-2.3.2-4.80 packages, right?

Vincent,

Wine as of last Friday I know ran fine on an up2date RedHat 8.0 box. The trick 
was to obtain a clean src tar package or delete your working CVS directory 
and recheckout and then ./configure (without the --with-nptl), make depend, 
make, make install on this clean directory 

I have upgrade to RedHat 9 since then. And everything works fine there as well 
as long as you do either 

LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5  before
./configure
and
wine

or

./configure --with-nptl
