<note>
<para>The instructions above disabled obsolete API functions since
no package installed by compiling from sources would link against
them at runtime. However, the only known binary-only applications
that link against these functions require ABI version 1. If you must
have such functions because of some binary-only application or to be
compliant with LSB, build the package again with the following
commands:</para>
<screen role="nodump"><userinput>make distclean
./configure --prefix=/usr \
--enable-hashes=strong,glibc \
--enable-obsolete-api=glibc \
--disable-static \
--disable-failure-tokens
