Tom:
I have another copy but it is the same code as the one referenced
above and from the glibc 2.2.4 that I have installed here.
# find / -name sendfile.h -print -depth
/usr/local/include/sys/sendfile.h
/usr/local/include.old/sys/sendfile.h
/usr/include/sys/sendfile.h
/mnt/scsi-1/Linux/glibc-2.2.4/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sys/sendfile.h
# ll /usr/local/include/sys/sendfile.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1316 Dec 20 13:25
/usr/local/include/sys/sendfile.h
# ll /usr/local/include.old/sys/sendfile.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1316 Aug 26 17:07
/usr/local/include.old/sys/sendfile.h
# ll /usr/include/sys/sendfile.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1316 Jun 24 2005
/usr/include/sys/sendfile.h
# ll
/mnt/scsi-1/Linux/glibc-2.2.4/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sys/sendfile.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1316 Jul 23 2001
/mnt/scsi-1/Linux/glibc-2.2.4/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sys/sendfile.h
and in the files it clearly says this is a problem:
#ifdef __USE_FILE_OFFSET64
# error "<sys/sendfile.h> cannot be used with _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64"
#endif
So how do I work around this one....I know upgrading glibc is a MAJOR
problem and probably beyond my ability without some assistance.
