Description Pierre Abbat 2003-01-01 20:21:59 UTC

It is impossible to complete a cast of glibc, because the make install script runs some program 
after dispelling the old glibc that doesn't find the library. Running ldconfig makes the command 
find the library again. On casting the same version as is already installed (but doesn't show in 
gaze because I had to install it by hand after running ldconfig) it produces this stream of 
errors: 
 
/tmp/casting.19802: line 128: /usr/bin/sleep: No such file or directory 
/tmp/casting.19802: line 125: /usr/sbin/lockexec: No such file or directory 
/tmp/casting.19802: line 128: /usr/bin/sleep: No such file or directory 
/tmp/casting.19802: line 125: /usr/sbin/lockexec: No such file or directory 
/tmp/casting.19802: line 128: /usr/bin/sleep: No such file or directory 
/tmp/casting.19802: line 125: /usr/sbin/lockexec: No such file or directory

Comment 1 Julian v. Bock 2003-01-04 00:48:21 UTC

sorcery contains some code that saves the old libraries before 
glibc is dispelled. this did not work for the 2.2.5 -> 2.3.1 update 
because of incompatible dynamic linkers, but it should work if you 
cast the same version. 
 
however, if you do not have a complete install log, the sorcery code will 
not save all libraries which are needed. if this is the case on your 
machine (and you are using 2.3.1) i can send you a complete install log.
