How to upgrade libc?
Hi guys!
I'm repeat my question with some additions because I still havn't got any
useful unswer.
I've tryed to upgrade libc-5.0.5 to libc-5.3.9. I untared bin distribution of it, did everything release.libc-5.3.9 stays about and run ldconfig.
After this I did ldconfig -p to see what happaned and it showed me that libc.so.5 still points to libc-5.0.5 and some strange thing called dnname points
to libc-5.3.9. Than I changed the link libc.so.5 to point to the new libc
mannualy and did ldconfig -v again - it changed it back with great consistancy.
Than I've compiled some Ada program with no problem, but when I tryed to run it I've seen the message: "can not resolve __libc_opendir". The same thing with
compiled by me C program. It's not happaning all the time: with some things does, with others doesn't.
What I'm doing wrong?
In general - is there some good routine to upgrade slakware linux? ( I tryed to remove old libc package with pkgtool, but after that my system crashed with the messages like "can't resolve link libc.so.5" or something like this).
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards,
