[gobo-eiffel-develop] Gobo binaries linked against glibc 2.4

[Patrick R. <pa...@ta...>]

Hi,

in the Linux download of gobo, the binaries are linked against glibc
2.4, in a lot of distributions this is not yet available. Would it be
possible to either compile the binaries statically or to link against an
older version of the glibc?

Thanks and regards,
Patrick

I think there is very little use in providing pre-compiled binaries  
anyway, as the bootstrap procedure is so straight forward and Linux  
libraries are ever-changing. ;-) Perhaps we should add some hint on how to  
do it onto the project homepage.

I think the files for the bootstrap are not even in the tar file, at
least there's no work directory, so it would be good if this were in
the releases.

They are not needed (if you are not using gec). You can just compile 
(using you favorite Eiffel compiler) each tool in the subdirectories
of $GOBO/src as indicated in the Readme.txt file. It's true that there
is no script yet to do that automatically.
