- CodePoet Consulting is pleased to announce the immediate availability of

- were configuration problems in the previous release that made such it
- necessary to release .23 so quickly. Updated uClibc development systems
- using uClibc 0.9.23 are being built and will be posted shortly. And Erik
- has built Debian stable (woody) for x86 with uClibc and it runs great.
-
- <p>
-
- This release continues to be binary compatible with uClibc 0.9.21 and
- 0.9.22 -- as long as you pick compatible configuration options. Enabling
- or disabling things like soft-float, locale, wide char support, or changing
- cpu optimizations are all good examples of binary incompatible
- configuration options. If have changed any of those sorts of options (or
- if you are not sure!) you will need to recompile all your applications and

- and is looking quite solid. We have done quite a lot of testing with this

- have been updated to uClibc 0.9.21 (plus all the CVS updates up to

- gcc has been updated to version 3.3.1, binutils was updated to 2.14.90.0.6, and
- <em>tada</em> everything finally works for cross compiling. These were
- all cross compiled (which really makes things faster since the older

- These are ~100 MB ext2 filesystems that run natively on the specified
- architecture. They contains all the development software you need to build

- make, gcc, g++, autoconf, automake, ncurses, zlib, openssl, openssh perl,
- and more. And of course, everything is dynamically linked against uClibc.
- By using a uClibc only system, you can avoid all the painful
- cross-configuration problems that have made using uClibc somewhat painful
- in the past. If you want to quickly get started with testing or using
- uClibc you should give these images a try. You can loop mount and them
- you can chroot into them, you can boot into with using user-mode Linux,
