So you'll be linking to printf@glibc.2.3.2 instead of just linking to printf. Very nice, and I wish more libraries did it. However, clearly a symbol (sys_siglist) was either introduced or had it's version changed between the two versions of the c library you have installed. One system has glibc-2.3.2-27.9.7 and the other has glibc-2.3.2-95.20. The correct approach really would have been for gmond to depend on the newer version of the c library if it uses those new symbols, but I guess not. The simplest solution for you is probably ro rebuild gmond from source on the older machine. Your only other choice is to upgrade libc to the same version as the one on the working box, but that risks breaking quite a few other things. > I have another system which supports the same version gmond using a > slightly different version of glibc as shown below..

Might this be the problem?
