I need glibc version 2.2 - 2.11 for a installation. but i got glibc 2.0-2.1 from software centre... what to do? can u help?

That sounds like you are running a very old version of Ubuntu. Why not upgrade to a more recent version? For example, Gutsy uses glibc 2.6.

- the Maverick Meerkat - released in October 2010

Did you tried to install valgrind via apt-get, then your diakon program? What does the following command output?

$(ldd `which ls` | grep libc | awk '{ print $3 }')

Thanks, Lo�c

Sorry, misunderstood what you said. Would not have happened if you has told us what version of Ubuntu you were using in the first place.

the result is :

So you have 2.12.1 installed; so I don't see why he does not meet the requirements?

Perhaps daikon might need some tweaking in order to be compiled on Ubuntu 10.10. Perhaps you should edit the configure script in order to "skip the GLIBC version check", and see if that works...

Alternatively, asking the daikon mailing list or similar might be more appropriate than this forum.

Good Luck, Lo�c
