>Though if application writers followed the guidelines provided by the LSB,
AHA. and how to write LSB applications ? Maybe not that hard, but compiling it? That's harder. I tried with a few of our custom apps. Downloadet the lsbdev-base , and lsbdev-cc. Now, our app compiles fine on everything from Solaris 2.6 to Redhat 6.1 to RHL 9. But LSB ? Nope. LSB didn't specifie the SunRPC headers/structures we needed. It also failed on an fcntl call using F_LOCK. On the apps that did compile, the lsbcc didn't make correct LSB binaries on RHL 9
/opt/lsbappchk/bin/lsbappchk for LSB Specification 1.3.0
Checking binary dorigen
Incorrect program interpreter: /lib/ld-linux.so.2
Header[ 1] PT_INTERP Failed
Found wrong intepreter in .interp section: /lib/ld-linux.so.2 instead of: /lib/ld-lsb.so.1
Section .eh_frame: sh_flags is wrong. expecting 3, got 2
Symbol __ctype_b_loc used, but not part of LSB
To bad. I lost my faith in LSB for this.
