Re: [SLE] How to tell glibc version?
Oyku Gencay
rpm -q glibc
and earlier, Alfredo J. Cole wrote:
You can try: rpm -qa | grep glibc
both in reply to Carson, Chuck, who wrote:
It used to be you can determine the version of glibc using 'ls -l /lib/libc.so.6' on SuSE. This only yields the following with SuSE Office Desktop: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1312483 Nov 14 10:30 /lib/libc.so.6
Also, I have a few applications that break under 8.1 with some libc errors. Is sometrhing amiss with glibc on SuSE Office Desktop?
Thanks, CC
I tried thee above two methods on my 8.0 machine: [home]$ rpm -q glibc glibc-2.2.5-158 [home]$ rpm -qa | grep glibc glibc-2.2.5-158 glibc-i18ndata-2.2.5-158 glibc-locale-2.2.5-158 glibc-devel-2.2.5-158
I also ran "pin" which I use (in addition to "locate") all the time: with the following results: [home]$ pin glibc [home]$ pin 0.25 - package info for glibc ------------------------------------------------------------------ *** rpm info ------------------------------------------------------------------ Name: glibc Relocations: (not relocateable) Version: 2.2.5 Vendor: SuSE AG, Nuernberg, Germany Release158 Build Date: Wed 02 Oct 2002 01:06:54 AM PDT Install date: Tue 18 Feb 2003 12:04:19 AM PST Build Host: amdsim5.suse.de Group: System/Libraries Source RPM: glibc-2.2.5-158.src.rpm Size: 4002251 License: GPL Packager: feedback@suse.de Summary: The shared libraries (from the c-library-package) Description: Shared C libraries - needed to run programs linked with libc and libm libraries (almost all). *************snip**** ** (Note: Some editing done for ease of reading)
Three ways with three different results --- and yes, i have heard that "glibc" is going through some re-visions as shown on the "change logs."
