How can I use beta repo for Centos 5.5?
 

Hi all!

I need to install on Centos 5.5 GLIBC version 3.x.
The installed and available version is 2.5 only.
Does anybody know how can I use a beta repo from Centos6?

Welcome to LQ.

Sorry, glibc is your system, and cannot be changed.

And by the way, the CentOS 6.0 glibc is version 2.12 .


Which application requires 2.1x or later ?
Usually there is a solution, also for CentOS 5.5.

Hi Shaen, The CentOS 6 Beta build is not released yet. Then how will you get it's repo ?

Latest downloads are v5.5 http://www.centos.org/modules/tinyco...ndex.php?id=15

Thanks 2 all who answered.

This is my question:
Can I use the beta repo or not? RedHat6 evaluation version can help me, but it isn't ready too.
See please my output:

This is my own application, which works fine on Ubuntu 10.04.
As I understood, I should wait Centos6.
