I remember last time I updated the glibc RPMs the machine wouldn't
shutdown cleanly the first time afterwards (can't umount a file
system because it's busy).
After thinking about it, I still don't quite understand what the
problem is but figure it must be something with the old glibc RPMS
still being used by the kernel and they've tried to be deleted.
Does any one know of a method to update to the new glibc RPMS and
still get a clean shutdown?
Note, I'm NOT talking about updating a RedHat 6.2 system to the 7.0
glibc RPMS. I'm talking about updating the 6.2 glibc to the newly
released glibc RPMS for 6.2 that fixed a security bug. From reading
the announcement, this appears to be only a security fix for local
users (not remotely exploitable) and I don't have any untrustworthy
users on my system so it's not necessary to do the update, but it
still would be nice to know how to do this (if it's possible) for
future reference.
Thanks,
Dave
