I've been tracking down some issues with dependency rtld(GNU_HASH), but came across a curiosity on one of my boxes. Somehow I ended up with a glibc-2.5 rpm for FC6 installed on one machine, but it doesn't seem to be available in the repos any more. Did it somehow find it's way in, then get retracted? I have installed firefox from the development repos, but if it picked glibc up from there I would expect it to have an fc7 release tag. Just to prove I'm not insane: foxtrot(~)$ rpm -q --whatprovides "rtld(GNU_HASH)" glibc-2.5-10.fc6 foxtrot(~)$ rpm -qi glibc-2.5-10.fc6 Name : glibc Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 2.5 Vendor: Red Hat, Inc. Release : 10.fc6 Build Date: Fri 05 Jan 2007 10:40:54 AM MST Install Date: Wed 17 Jan 2007 05:51:01 PM MST Build Host: hs20-bc1-5.build.redhat.com Group : System Environment/Libraries Source RPM: glibc-2.5-10.fc6.src.rpm Size : 12519020 License: LGPL Signature : DSA/SHA1, Wed 10 Jan 2007 08:20:42 AM MST, Key ID b44269d04f2a6fd2 Packager : Red Hat, Inc. <http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla> Summary : The GNU libc libraries. Description : The glibc package contains standard libraries which are used by multiple programs on the system. In order to save disk space and memory, as well as to make upgrading easier, common system code is kept in one place and shared between programs. This particular package contains the most important sets of shared libraries: the standard C library and the standard math library. Without these two libraries, a Linux system will not function.
