Well... the last days I continued my linux 2.6.4 + gcc 3.3.3 journey. I kind 
of have every (sorely) needed package running except util-linux  ... I even 
have KDE and postgresql (both working!) with only 116 packages(!). Well, and 
"mine" also still fails... but here you can see the (short) list anyway:

Error logs from eagle-2.0.1-x86-pentium3-32-generic-expert:

 [1] 982 base/util-linux                 [1]   0 base/iproute2
 [3] 948 base/util-linux                 [5] 241 base/alsa
 [5]   0 base/mine                       [5]   0 x11/linux-drm
 [5]  22 x86/apmd                        [5]   0 base/iproute2
 [5]   0 avm/noteedit

172 builds total, 163 completed fine, 9 with errors.

The build is based on svn 2581

What I'm missing is util-linux, and mine wouldn't be too bad of course. I used 
a couple of patches from fake (THANKS Alejandro for the hints), although 
util-linux still does not compile with my settings.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

All above is just informational (I'll put everything relevant up on ftp after 
I got util-linux going).

Has anyone a working util-linux with linux 2.6.4 and gcc 3.3.3? (no, the patch 
from fake on sm is not enough, at least not the one I tried...: 
0903014019880)? If not I'll try to get it running myself, but just wanted to 
ask so we're not doing duplicate work.
