glibc


Hi,

What is the sane and logical way of determining what version(s) of glibc you have installed on your system?

I did a findfile on *glibc* and it turned up all kinds of stuff but there's probably a better way of doing it.

Is there a standard path that it is usually installed to? Or is it differnet for every distro?

if it is an RPM based distro (I see in your profile that it is), and I assume glibc was installed by RPM then use
rpm -q glibc
it will return the version of it
rpm -ql glibc
will return every file that was installed with glibc rpm.
