I’m installing xcdroast (cd writing software) on a Red Hat Linux 5.2 system. For reasons I cannot discuss here I cannot upgrade the OS. When I run the ‘rpm -ivh filename.rpm’ command it’s saying that:
libm.so.6 (GLIBC_2.1)is needed by xcdroast
libc.so.6 (GLIBC_2.0)is needed by xcdroast
libc.so.6 (GLIBC_2.1)is needed by xcdroast
I did an ‘rpm -q glib’ and I’m running glibc-2.0.7-29 version, which is the latest version I was able to find for 5.2.
I have read about upgrading the gnu libraries from source or from binaries and it requires a whole lot to do which sounds kind of scary.
I have the glibc for 6.0. I have the feeling that if I go ahead and run the rpm for it, I’m will be messing up my system. This is an important system and it’s working fine right now. I need to add the cd burning facilities though.
Can someone help.
Thank you.
Rafael.
