Debian and Nexenta collideDebian and Nexenta collidePosted Nov 9, 2005 18:04 UTC (Wed) by ballombe (subscriber, #9523)Parent article: Debian and Nexenta collide Nexenta would have helped itself by not assuming it was the first non-Linux Debian port. popcon.debian.org would have enlightened them. Cooperation works both way.

BSD libc already used in Debian Posted Nov 9, 2005 21:28 UTC (Wed) by ncm (subscriber, #165) [Link] Indeed, it ought to be easy enough to adapt one of the Debian/kBSD libc ports to call Solarix syscalls instead. Distance from glibc is no bad thing.
BSD libc already used in Debian Posted Nov 9, 2005 21:47 UTC (Wed) by mel (subscriber, #5484) [Link] How about applications like xmms that use glibc pretty heavily? Like theglibc lists for example or is that something that is already addressed?
BSD libc already used in Debian Posted Nov 9, 2005 22:19 UTC (Wed) by ncm (subscriber, #165) [Link] XMMS is not part of the base system, so there are any number of ways to accommodate it -- if indeed it is needed at all. Most likely anybody running a Debian GNU/Solarix system will be operating it as a server, and have no use for XMMS.
Dpkg, by contrast, isn't terribly demanding.
BSD libc already used in Debian Posted Nov 9, 2005 23:53 UTC (Wed) by jamesh (guest, #1159) [Link] Are you perhaps confusing glib and glibc?
BSD libc already used in Debian Posted Nov 10, 2005 12:06 UTC (Thu) by havardk (subscriber, #810) [Link] Are you perhaps confusing glib and glibc?Ah, probably, you had me confused there for a while. XMMS is reasonably portable, and runs just fine on Solaris with the Sun libc.
BSD libc already used in Debian Posted Nov 17, 2005 22:57 UTC (Thu) by rqosa (subscriber, #24136) [Link] Actually, Debian GNU/kFreeBSD uses a port of glibc. Maybe Debian GNU/NetBSD uses the NetBSD libc (the website doesn't say).
