Subject: [gentoo-dev] glibc-2.2.4-r6.tbz2 now available
Date: Fri, 21 Dec 2001 14:51:32 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20011221145132.D854@chiba.3jane.net> (raw)

Hi All,

For anyone bitten by the recent glibc upgrade bug, I have a pre-built i486+
compatible glibc package built, available from the following location:

http://www.gentoo.org/~drobbins/glibc-2.2.4-r6.tbz2

To repair a damaged system, you'll want to boot using a rescue disk (such as
our boot CD), and then extract the tarball using GNU tar as follows....

# tar xjUpvf glibc-2.2.4-r6.tbz2 -C /mnt/gentoo

...where /mnt/gentoo is the mountpoint of your Gentoo Linux distribution.

If you don't know how to boot the CD *and* get access to the glibc .tbz2 file,
remember that you can enable networking from our CD and then use wget to grab
the glibc-2.2.4-r6.tbz2 file.  All you'll need is a functioning ethernet LAN.

Ignore any "trailing garbage ignored" error; that's just tar skipping over
our Gentoo Linux-specific metadata.

Best Regards,

--
