1. Can compiled linux "exe" be run on libc5 distro
Dear members
I would like to run a linux Eu on a distro that uses libc5.
I am aware that running the interpreter in Linux requires a libc6 distro, but if
I compile
on a libc6 ditro (using ecu.zip, the compiling with GNC C), will this compiled
Eu file
work on the libc5 distro? Anyone had any experience?
Any suggestions to max chances of getting it right (if it can be done)?
Thanks

You would have to link it staticly.
Edit the emake script that was created, and change the final gcc line:
gcc file1.o file2.o file3.o /home/euphoria/bin/ecu.a -lm /usr/lib/libncurses.a
-ldl -lgpm -oprogram
to this:
gcc -static file1.o file2.o file3.o /home/euphoria/bin/ecu.a -lm
/usr/lib/libncurses.a -ldl -lgpm -oprogram
That will make the executable significantly larger, but allow it to run on
libc5 linux.
