In what package is the glibc 2.3x included? Does it have effect on VLC? I won't do anymore full updates with MintPPC as they broke the functionality of VLC!
Glibc packages:

Please try
# apt install libc6.

Hi Christian! Happy new year! I noticed that you compiled the new version of arcticfox 40.1, I have prepared a miniguide on how to generate the deb file starting from the tar.gz that is created using "mach package",
http://repo.powerprogress.org/temp/arct ... b_file.txt
how_to_generate_arcticfox_deb_file.txt:
Code: Select all
get the template folder
> wget http://repo.powerprogress.org/temp/arcticfox/_arcticfox-template.zip
unzip the template folder
> unzip _arcticfox-template.zip
copy the template folder into a new folder that will be used to generate the deb file
> cp -R _arcticfox-template arcticfox-40.0
customize the control file (version, architecture, installed-size, maintener, description)
> nano arcticfox-40.0/DEBIAN/control
extract the content of the tar.gz into the folder "usr/share/arcticfox" so that the arcticfox main executable is placed in this folder
enter the parent folder containg the folder "arcticfox-40.0" and generate the deb file
> dpkg-deb --build arcticfox-40.0
rename the deb file using the following naming scheme
> ren arcticfox-40.0.deb arcticfox-40.0.linux-ppc64-with-altivec.deb
> ren arcticfox-40.0.deb arcticfox-40.0.linux-ppc64-no-altivec.deb
> ren arcticfox-40.0.deb arcticfox-40.0.linux-powerpc-with-altivec.deb
> ren arcticfox-40.0.deb arcticfox-40.0.linux-powerpc-no-altivec.deb

I'm having issues with the status bar. It never appears. For example, when hovering over a link the status bar usually appears at the bottom of the browser window to show the link address, but it does not any longer. Additionally, the download indicator does not appear when downloading anything. Is anyone else experiencing these issues with the new Arctic Fox version? I tried to play around with the Status bar preferences, but it does not seem to have any effect.
