Well, then, he was quite specific about running Mandriva on the server, it was about the only thing he was specific about, so an opensuse glibc update would not cause any problems for him
The OP said
mandriva-upgraded-to-Mageia2 and if you look back, that was at the advice of people here since the openSuse installers would not upgrade mandriva.
The impression I get is that when the 'suits' took over Mandriva after its financial woes the 'geeks' weren't happy and fled. Mandriva 2012 is due out some time in 2013 - which tells you a lot about how things are at mandriva and how likely you are to get support out of them. Mind you, the Mageia system, while technically very slick in the core and in some ways slightly more so than Fedora 17 or openSuse 12.1 as far as systemd integration goes, lacks in other areas, including various aspects of support. I dearly wish I could have found some way to upgrade from mandriva to openSuse. Support here is *SO* much better. Anyway, the people here have been immensely supportive off-list, something I've never found even in the pre-"suit" days of mandriva! And if anyone can figure a way to convince the openSuse installer to work on the Mageia system - and not demand that /usr gets reformatted! - I'd be very grateful. I don't mind playing with with Mageia, Mint, others, but I don't consider them 'production' systems as I do the Sues and Redhat products.
