Identify the txz package containing the libc.2-33.so

tk3000 · 08-13-2023, 02:03 PM

On slackware 15, whenever I tried the following:

slackpkg file-search libc-2.33.so

it shows the msg "No package contains" but it should be there I would imagine since this library should be an integral part of the slackware dist. Any insights?

Code:

$ slackpkg file-search libc-2.33.so

Looking for libc-2.33.so in package list. Please wait... DONE

The list below shows the packages that contains "libc-2\.33\.so" file.

[ installed ] - aaa_glibc-solibs-2.33-x86_64-5
[ installed ] - glibc-2.33-x86_64-5

You can search specific packages using "slackpkg search package".

Welcome to this forum tk3000.

Here is the answer:

Code:

didier[~]$ grep libc-2.33.so /var/lib/pkgtools/packages/*
/var/lib/pkgtools/packages/aaa_glibc-solibs-2.33-x86_64-5:lib64/incoming/libc-2.33.so
/var/lib/pkgtools/packages/glibc-2.33-x86_64-5:lib64/incoming/libc-2.33.so

So this shared library is shipped in the packages aaa_glibc_solibs and glibc.

PS Indeed you can also use slackpkg as Petri pointed out.

Yeah, that is odd. When I type the following on the command line it shows:

"
root@darkstar:/lib64# slackpkg file-search inittab

Looking for inittab in package list. Please wait... DONE

The list below shows the packages that contains "inittab" file.

[uninstalled] - getty-ps-2.1.0b-x86_64-4
[ installed ] - sysvinit-3.01-x86_64-1
[ installed ] - sysvinit-scripts-15.0-noarch-8
[ installed ] - vim-9.0.1678-x86_64-1_slack15.0

No packages contains "libc-2\.33\.so" file.
"

It works with other files, as shown above with "inittab". Something must be amiss or corrupt in mine.

Have you modified /etc/slackpkg/blacklist ?

I entered the grep command you suggested, and that seem to have clarify the situation.

oot@darkstar:/lib64# grep libc-2.33.so /var/lib/pkgtools/packages/*
/var/lib/pkgtools/packages/aaa_glibc-solibs-2.33_multilib-x86_64-5alien:lib/libc-2.33.so
/var/lib/pkgtools/packages/aaa_glibc-solibs-2.33_multilib-x86_64-5alien:lib64/incoming/libc-2.33.so
/var/lib/pkgtools/packages/glibc-2.33_multilib-x86_64-5alien:lib/libc-2.33.so
/var/lib/pkgtools/packages/glibc-2.33_multilib-x86_64-5alien:lib64/incoming/libc-2.33.so
root@darkstar:/lib64#

In the past, I installed alien’s multilib packages (to run both 64bits and 32bits software); replacing some of the original and standard ones.

Thanks for the warm welcome Didier.

No, I don't recall. But, yeah, as posted above I installed alien's multilib packages in the past and that kind of explains the situation. Thanks!
