Title: ATK-semi library
Post by: zzhang on July 6, 2009, 23:53: Hello,

When running the ATK-semi, I go the following error: /home/zzhang/ATK/atk-2009.06/nlpython/bin/nlpython_exec: /lib64/tls/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by /home/zzhang/ATK/atk-2009.06/nlpython/bin/../lib/libpython2.6.so.1.0).

When I tried to look for GLIBC_2.4 I found the following link:
http://gbgames.com/blog/2008/04/linux-game-development-glibc_24-errors-solved/

There it was mentioned that GLIBC_2.4 is not needed when the correct compiler flags export CFLAGS="-fno-stack-protector" are used. If by mistake the flag -fno-stack-protector is used in building the libraries, it requires GLIBC_2.4.

Could somebody explain if this the case for the ATK-semi? Or is it necessary to install GLIBC_2.4?

Thanks,
Zhiyong

/path_to_atk-2009.06/nlpython/bin/nlpython
, you will see some messages that tell us the compiler platform: [GCC 4.2.4 (Ubuntu 4.2.4-5ubuntu1)] on linux2.

From the error message you have met, I guess the compiler flag "CFLAGS="-fno-stack-protector" was not used to compile the version of ATK-Semi library you have installed. So it is necessary to install GLIBC_2.4.

Anyway, the tip in your link is a good suggestion to do some tests for ATK-Semi library to avoid installing GLBC_2.4.
