If I upgrade from 2.8 to say 4, will I then have to wade through all the
apps that I have made and installed, like apache, gdm, php3, psql, mysql,
sendmail ad infinitum , and rebuild and reinstall all that?
thanks

|Chnage in in shared libs would require recompilation of all pieces.
I did an upgrade by source from 3.4 to 4.0 and did not need to recompile
stuff.

Only if the interface is reduced (which it typically isn't, if only
for just this reason), otherwise no you don't need to rebuilt
anything unless it's statically compiled.

BSD: A psychoactive drug, popular in the 80s, probably developed at UC
Berkeley or thereabouts. Similar in many ways to the prescription-only
medication called "System V", but infinitely more useful. (Or, at least,
more fun.) The full chemical name is "Berkeley Standard Distribution".
1. Probably a silly question about "errno"
Hiya-
I've looked at some FAQ's, Altavista and other places, but can't seem to
get a satisfactory answer to this one. Maybe someone could help. If
it's a dumb question, just say so, and don't flame my ass.
I can't pin down how "errno" relates to its reported value. Example: I
was reading a post that said an error was reported from some program,
the exact program/error is not important:
--------
poll() returned -1, errno = 2
--------
OOOKay. So, go to man page for poll():
---
...
RETURN VALUE
On success, zero is returned. On error, -1 is returned,
and errno is set appropriately.
ERRORS
ENOMEM There was no space to allocate file descriptor
tables.
EFAULT The array given as argument was not contained in
the calling program's address space.
EINTR An signal occurred before any requested event.
...
----
So in this case does "errno = 2" <---> EINTR, maybe?
Conjecture: if so, it called errno = 2 because there are three errors,
0, 1, 2 listed and it is the third entry, value = 2?
Also, one is always directed to "errno.h" for details. But on my system
this does not seem to be very fruitful; or perhaps it is, it is just
that I am not yet able to do a good job in reading includes?
A little light (but hopefully, no heat) on this topic would be much
appreciated.
TIA.
