  58 <p>According to Sasha I downloaded a copy of glibc-2.2.93.5.src.rpm. Next I modified the spec file to include --enable-static-nss=yes. In attempting to rebuild using rpmbuild -bb I received notice that I had to get and install gd-devel-1.8.4-9.i386.rpm and libpng-devel-1.2.2-8.i386.rpm. After that the rpmbuild worked OK and I copied the libraries like so:</p>
