Hi guys,
We have an Intel P-4 machine running Redhat 8. Since some packages don't get compiled without glibc 2.3, we decided to upgrade glibc from 2.2.93 to 2.3.2-11.9. We downloaded source rpm from redhat and compiled it on our machine. It created rpms for i386 architecture.
We could upgrade glibc-common and glibc without any problem ( we took the backup of /lib before upgradation). But rpm gives segmentation fault now whenever we try to upgrade or install any package. All other programs seem to be working fine with new glibc.
As it seems, rpm-4.1-1.06 is incompatible with glibc 2.3 and should be upgraded before upgrading glibc. But as we have already done the mistake, please suggest us how can we get rpm working, so that we can upgrade rpm before glibc.
Referring to the comment on:
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=89135
we don't have /lib/tls on our machine.
Thanks and Regards,
Manu Garg,
