Got a question.
We're currently running SLES8 SP3 with glibc 2.2.5.
I was APPLY CHECKing, er, running rpm -Uh --test on mysql-4.0.18 and
mysql-client. Several dependencies were indicated, including
libc.so.6 (GLIBC_2.3) needed for mysql-4.0.18. I then did a rpm -Uh --test on
glibc-2.3.3-98. I received an error:failed dependencies with a
list of products (like rpm, susewm, kdebase3, webalizer) that needed libdb.so.2
(GLIBC_2.0).
So, actually, a few questions.
What is the approriate thing to do here?
Install glibc 2.3.3 and then re-install the products called out for
libdb.so.2 and other GLIBC_2.0 dependencies?
Install glibc 2.3.3 and install higher versions of the products called
out for libdb.so.2?
Is it better just to do a forced march to SLES9?
Finally, is there a doc or HOWTO that talks about the sort of dependencies and
issues between glibc versions and products that use them?
Thanks
