Special information regarding the use of PStill on Linux
Starting in Jan 2008 the default platform for PStill is Ubuntu 7.1 ("Gutsy Gibbon"), v1.72.14 is built on this platform.For older Linux versions that break on loading the pstill binary with
./pstill: /lib/tls/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by ./pstill)older versions are still available:
This 1.72.12 version of PStill is compiled on Fedora Core 3 and should run on Fedora Core 4 and 5 and RedHat Linux 9 or newer. It dynamically links with libstd++.so.6.
If your Linux system still uses libstd++.so.5 (The ABI of GCC 3.3 or older) you need install the newer libstd++ or download the matching binary for libstd++.so.5.
The symptom of this issue is a message complaining about a missing libstd++.so.6 when starting pstill or a crash with illegal instruction.
You can also try an older version of PStill compiled with GCC 3.3.
