Thanks a million, Wolfgang!
Thanks for the compliments :-)
But since I want to use a 2.4.19 kernel instead of the 2.4.4 I tried to rebuild
the glibc.
What has the kernel version to do with the C library used by
applications?
I pulled the glibc-2.2.1-0f.src.rpm from ftp.leo.org installed it in
/opt/ELDK/usr/src/denx/SRPMS and started rebuilding the glibc with
Ummm... you mean you pulled the source RPM from the ELDK directory?
Or what?
scholz@pinguin:/opt/ELDK/usr/src/denx/SPECS> ppc_8xx-rpm -ba glibc.spec
It all works well until the installation scripts:
...
So what's the problem here? Is the file "el.mo" broken? Can I skip this? (I am
sure I won't need el.mo)
If I remember correctly, you're running on a SuSE system? We never
verified building in sucha n environment. Under RH-7.x (x=1,2,3) it
works fine.
BTW: Wolfgang, do I have to be superuser to rebuild a target package for ELDK? I
guess not.
No. The only case where superuser permissions are needed is to create
the /dev entries (running the ELDK_MAKEDEV script) after installation
of the tools - but this is only necessary when you want to export the
native tools on a NFS server.

For building an application the header files in /usr/include (i.e.
$(ELDK_ROOT)/ppc_8xx/usr/include are used.
We need newer header files than the on ethat come with your ELDK. So instead of
just copying the missing files and messing the whole system up I thought it
would be a good idea to rebuild the glibc using the 2.4.19 kernel headers. And
so getting a clean /usr/include path.

I meant that I did what you said in ftp.leo.org/pub/eldk/README.html in section
8 "Rebuilding ELDK Components". So I pulled
ftp://ftp.leo.org/pub/eldk/eldk-ppc-sources.tar and extracted
target\SRPMS\glibc-2.2.1-0f.src.rpm from it. This file I installed using
$(CROSS_COMPILE)rpm -i glibc-2.2.1-0f.src.rpm. So I got the glibc sources and
specs und /opt/ELDK/usr/src/denx/SOURCES.
Just like you said in your README.

Hmm. That's right. It's SuSE 8.0. But the other .po files produced no errors.
BTW I had troubles with the file "zh_TW.po" as well.
I just deleted these two files (in /opt/ELDK/usr/src/denx/BUILD/glibc-2.2.1/po/)
and tried again: With success thsi time!
I've seen a couple of
