2 <question><para>Glibc fails with ". . . . it is normal to compile GNU libc
3 with the `linuxthreads' add-on. . . ."</para></question>
4 <answer><para>The exact error looks like this:
5 <screen>*** On GNU/Linux systems it is normal to compile GNU libc with the
6 *** `linuxthreads' add-on. Without that, the library will be
7 *** incompatible with normal GNU/Linux systems.
8 *** If you really mean to not use this add-on, run configure again
9 *** using the extra parameter `--disable-sanity-checks'.
11 <para>You have not unpacked glibc-linuxthreads-X.X.X.tar.bz2
12 <emphasis>in the glibc-X.X.X directory.</emphasis>
13 Unpack it there and you'll be all set.
