Submitted By: Jonathan Norman <Jonathan at bluesquarelinux.co.uk>
Date: 2011-05-17
Initial Package Version: 5.8.8
Origin: Ryan Oliver
Upstream Status: Unknown
Description: This patch adapts some hard-wired paths to the C library.
             It uses the $prefix variable to locate the correct libc.
