All those files are included in glibc 2.4-2, but not in 2.3.6-2, so it is safe to force the install - pacman -Sf. As to why it happened, did you have 2.4 on the machine before, maybe when it was in testing, followed by a downgrade to 2.3.6 in current? I seem to remember someone else having this problem with leftover files in the same situation. _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
