Hello all, I also experienced initial problems getting the new glibc 2.16.0-2 to work. In my case, the problem was an older version of lib32-glibc (I think I had version 2.14.x installed, sorry can't remember exactly). After enabling the multilib repo in /etc/pacman.conf and doing sudo pacman -Syu --ignore glibc sudo pacman -Su Here is a link to a corresponding forum post: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1131545 Everything was updated well.
