This worked up to glibc 2.0, as of 2.1 the functions are no longer exported by glibc. The solution is to either get newer libraries, probably from Suse or to write wrapper functions that map these functions to their "official" equivalents: #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <unistd.h> /* * wrapper for glibc 2.1 private functions, allows linking * of object files compiled for older libc versions * * int stat(const char *file_name, struct stat *buf); * int mknod(const char *pathname, mode_t mode, dev_t dev); */ int _xstat(int dummy, const char *file_name, struct stat *buf) { return stat(file_name, buf); } int _xmknod(int dummy, const char *pathname, mode_t mode, dev_t dev) { return mknod(pathname, mode, dev); } -Andreas
