Ubuntu Installation :: ERROR: Your Glibc Library Is Older Than 2.3
May 7, 2010
I'm trying to install the latest debug flashplayer available here:

I follow the embedded instructions and this is the error:

[: 258: closing paren expected
ERROR: Your glibc library is older than 2.3.
[code]....
I'm running Ubuntu Karmic Koala and it is up to date.
Could it be that the flash installer parses the version number wrong as previously it was glibc-2.9-1, a '9' after the dot, now there is a '1'.
I've been working to get gcc up and running on a new install of Fedora 13. glibc-devel had dependencies upon installation where it required glibc and glibc-common, both 2.12.1-3. No problem, found both at rpm dot pbone dot net. However, when I try to install the following circular dependency results... it doesn't matter the order of install.
Code:
[root AT localhost gcc_install]# rpm -ivh glibc-common-2.12.1-3.x86_64 .rpm error: Failed dependencies: glibc = 2.12.1-3 is needed by glibc-common-2.12.1-3.x86_64
I've been looking awhile now, but no patch for this is yet to be found. Does anyone have more info, or better, a fix? Last version from GNU's ftp server is also vuln as of this writing.
We recently ported an application over from IRIX to Linux, specifically SUSE Enterprise 11 and gcc (glibc 2.9). On IRIX there was a library trace utility call 'par' that allowed me to execute a C program and trace all the library calls it made, tracking how much time was spent in each call. I have been trying to find something similar for SUSE. I have found the ?trace programs (strace, ltrace, and ktrace) none of which is default installed on SUSE 11.Does any one have a suggestion on which ?trace to install and use or is there something else out there better?
I am a non-root user on my Lab computer with RHEL4 OS and am trying to install Glibc-2.11.1 on it .. for proper installation I used a directory other than the source directory of Glibc and ran configure which was fine, then I ran make which also ran fine.. but when I ran "make install" an error came up which was :
so I guess I don't need to specify the configparms .. but anyway I did it as earlier I wasn't sure what would solve my problem with NSCD.. Then I moved to make and all went fine, but the same error popped up during "make install"
I notice that these two packages contain the same files and uninstalling glibc-i18n doesn't uninstall the internationalization files, because they are also in the glibc package. Is this a mistake or is this normal or is there a reason for it ? I just made my own glibc package to fix this, but was wondering why this is the way it is...
I have installed Zimbra 6.0.1 and updated to Zimbra 7.1.0, the problem is that it needs the glibc-2.10 to start one of its services. I tried everything but i'dont get to update the glibc.
OS : Oracle Enter Prise Linux 6 (equivalent to RedHat)
I am in process to install oracle 10g on said OS.My process fails and after digging up , I came to know that some of the oracle libraries are compiled on 32-bit architecture and it require glibc-32 bit . also it require for gcc-32 bit.
Now i have downloaded all the required rpm for gcc-32bit . when I try to install glibc and its dependencies , it gives me error that newer version already exist.
How can I install , Gcc-32bit(libgc, libstd-i386 etc) in parallel or standalone?
I made an update of my Centos 5.5 yesterday. In doing so glibc has been updated to glibc.i686. Just now some of my FPGA tools crash. Unfortunately there isn't a downgrade for glibc.i686. How can I replace glibc.i686 by glibc.i386?A simple yum install glibc.i386 conflicts with the files from package glibc-2.5-65.i686
yum list glibc Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
I am in very much need to resolve the issue of Upgrade redhat5 from glibc 2.5 to glibc 2.7. The problem is when I run a binary compiled on our build setup (glibc 2.11) on Suse 11 (glibc 2.9) it works fine...
But the same binary do not work on redhat enterprise version 5 telling error as need glibc2.7 or sometimes segmentation fault for the same binary execution.
I tried upgrading the redhat glibc 2.5 to glibc 2.7, but not successful.
/usr/dlc/bin/_progress: relocation error; symbol errno, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time referrence
And the solution offered is:
But the problem still exists.
If I use 2.4.20 I get an error about shared "something" in library and I cannot use command line like using command as ll, ls, mkdir but if I change that to 2.6.18 I get the error above but I can now use these commands: ll, ls, mkdir, etc.
I'm using Progress 9.1D and the application was compiled using CENTOS 4.4. Now I just copied the Progress 9.1D as is to new server HP Proliant ML110 G5 with CENTOS 5.2 installed.
Copying Progress 9.1D to other computers (IDE and not SATA drivers) with CENTOS 4.4 installed has no problem. Everything runs.
Could this be due to GLIBC version. Progress application was compiled using GLIBC version 2.3.4 but my GLIBC now is version 2.5.
If this is the case, can I just copy GLIBC version 2.3.4 and put it in my ProliantML110G5 server? If not how do I do it? Downloading and installing etc.
I'm running my own repository for my CentOS servers and ran into problem which seems to be on the 32bit boxes only. When trying to patch, I get the following dependency error.
I have a NAS (dlink-320) with a fully working fun_plug (http://wiki.dns323.info/) Linux system.However when I try to install x263 the configuration scripts says it need the math function log2f()But because fun_plug uses uClib instead of glibc and uClib have not yet implemented log2f() function I am trying to compile the glibc instead. I am only interested in the math part of glibc but have not found any documentation to just compile this part so it seems that I have to compile "most" of it. have gli I have copied glibc-ports-2.9/sysdeps/arm to glibc-2.11.2/sysdeps.and I enter
Code: ../configure --prefix=/ffp --libdir=/ffp/lib --includedir=/ffp/include --enable-shared --build=arm-linux but get the following error message
Yesterday, I think I did something stupid: I removed kernel-headers, gcc, glibc-devel and glibc-headers. My box is a CentOS 5.4 webserver (it has loads of packages installed, but that was done through Virtualmin config, so it's quite coherent all in all). The thing is that now I need to reinstall at least the headers and glibc, but hey! this is what I get :
I want to install the media-player vlc 1.0.6 on my system.My Linux version is Linpus. The package's name ended with tar.bz2 so I tried to install it from source. I don't know how to update the glibc run.time and I don't understand the alternative suggestion. What should I do?
I somehow landed into this situation (don't really remember how), but no package installation/removal seems to be possible for me. Neither apt-get -f install or autoremove seems to work.
When I do: sudo apt-get -f install I see the following: - uname -a: Linux konnichiwa 2.6.27-11-generic #1 SMP Wed Apr 1 20:53:41 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux (Jaunty 9.04, Ubuntu) - Configuring libc6 screen with <yes>, <no> appears. - Click on <yes>. - It fails with this error:

I am trying to install the apr port on freeBSD and I get the following error:
Code:

I do a volunteer work for World Computer Exchange, or WCE, a non profit org.WCE get a lot of old-ish (gettins less P3s, and more P4s now) computers, install Ubuntu and ship them to schools,libraries,etc. to the developing countries.When I say Ubuntu, I often intall Xubuntu since the machines are slow, but if it meets the Ubuntu requirement in terms of memory and disk, we often install Ubuntu Ubuntu.And, installing Ubuntu in general takes time. Most people don't notice "it's slow", but if you install it to a 10GB IDE ATA4 disks,it often takes a few hours. I can do it to a handful of machines but there are so many machines to deal with.
I modified the installer to do unattended installation so it is less of hassle now but I'd like to know what I can do to speed up the installation.If it's faster, we'd be able to go though a lot more machines.Also, it would be great if it's an easy process without network. I personally use a network (pxe boot and unattended installation), but there are many volunteers and it's logistically far easier if it can be installed without it.I give out a modified CD to those volunteers and they just put it in and watch the progress of installation. Since machines often have issues with hardware, it's not a simple process even if it's unattended installer.
I tried to compile one software. After I typed "./configure", there is an error:error: GSL CBLAS library not foundI installed GSL 1.9 library --- When I was installing, it was like this:
make install Making install in gsl make[1]: Entering directory `myDir/gsl-1.9/gsl'
I am new to linux and trying to install one software and it is constantly throwing me an error eventhough I downloaded and latest version of boost and tryed to add it to its path: The error is: "We could not detect the boost library(version1.38 or higher). If you have a stages boost library(still not installed) please specify $boost_root in your envireonment and do not give a PATH to --with-bost option. IF you are sure you have boost installed, then check 7youe version number looking in<boost/version.hpp>"
