RPM install

[Brian Densmore]

This seems to be a problem with the glibc library. Does anyone know of any
bug reports on this? Or is this Linux infinite loop, you can't install XYZ
until you upgrade glibc, but you can't upgrade glibc without uninstalling
everything else. Is this some core library? If it is then, some serious work
needs to be done on Linux to allow upgrading glibc without trashing the
system.
What exactly is glibc anyway?

Anyone, want to field this one?

Brian

I had the same exact same problem when trying to install a blackjack card
game several months ago.
Never really did get a resolution to it.

I am trying to install the perl-5.6.0-9.rpm and I have a dependency
error with libc.so.6. There is a symbolic link libc.so.6 pointing to
libc-2.1.3.so in the /lib directory.

I am running RedHat 6.2. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Doug
