I wanted to upgraded glibc to 2.4. I upgraded it and at the end of the emerge I got this error similar to this one, mine involved libresolv: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-443051-postdays-0-postorder-asc-highlight-libresolv+glibc-start-0.html I then did emerge -C =glibc-2.4-r4 to remove glibc-2.4 completely and leave 2.3. Now my whole system is b0rked. I can't even chroot in because it can't run /bin/sh or /bin/bash on the new system. Basically all binaries are screwed on the new system. I do have a quickpkg of glibc2.3 but I'm not sure what good that will do. If anyone can help me I'm desperate to save this system and not have to reinstall. -- David Grant http://www.davidgrant.ca -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
