[HTCondor-users] compiling standard universe on Ubuntu 12.04

[Evan <evan@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey all,

I'm trying to get a standard universe build working on Ubuntu 12.04 and 
after I noticed the ubuntu .deb files released by the HTCondor team 
didn't have condor_compile, I'm trying to compile it myself from source. 
One of the problems I'm running into is that I receive this message 
while running cmake:

-- Condor can not build standard universe for glibc version:215
-- ** Standard Universe Disabled **

Digging in a bit, I found that first line in 
externals/bundles/glibc/CMakeLists.txt in an else clause. Reading the 
file a bit, it looks like condor wants glibc 213 or earlier (maybe in 
between 2.3 and 2.13, I'm not certain).

Is this limit set because later versions of glibc, such as 2.15, are 
currently incompatible with the standard universe, or because they 
haven't been tested yet? Or perhaps some other reason.

Thanks,
Evan
