GLibC 2.5 emerge: seg. fault?

tulcod · 02-07-2007, 10:54 AM

Hey all, geeks of LQ. i'm having a bit of a problem with updating from glibc 2.3.6-r5 to 2.5

I'm using linux 2.6.19-r5

Code:

# uname -a
Linux tulcod-desky 2.6.19-gentoo-r5 #5 Wed Feb 7 13:43:17 CET 2007 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1500+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux

basically, the errror given is a segmentation error on xbootparam_prot.stmp
i'll see if i can get a tail of the error report as soon as possible.

btw: i'm using gentoo linux, mainly stable.

so, here are a last few lines of the emerge action:

I was just about to say I upgraded to 2.5 fine when I realized you were upgrading from 2.3. This is going to require some special attention [can't give you exact details, I've only recently (3 days) switched to gentoo]. The Gentoo forums or freenode channel might have details. You might also find some glibc upgrading docs on gentoo.org

Also looks like you have downloaded wrong stage tarball, I hardly believe you are running it on an i386.

I got this far indeed, but i couldn't post that yesterday evening. Indeed, i'm currently using 2.3.something
so, i tried to switch to 2.4. didn't work out, because (as said below) i'm using i386 for compiling. and 2.4 requires nptl, which requires i386

this could be true, $(CHOST) is set to i386. uname -a, as posted, says that my system is athlon XP and i686. on gentoo, that means i'll have to rebuild my whole system. Not that much of a problem, but i'll have to find some free days.

THX for all help!
