Re: libc6 messed up, no success recovering
Ben,
Thanks. Since my original aim was to downgrade my g++ from 2.95.4 to
2.95.2, I had briefly switched from woody to potato in order to get the
older version of g++. Thus my system is currently a mix, and the libc
file I'm trying to install is from the potato version, but the rest of
my system is woody. I had been using the potato rescue and root disks,
but I've just switched to using the woody disks.
With the woody rescue & boot disks the error message has changed.
Now, when I try to run dpkg-deb, I get
/target/usr/bin/dpkg-deb: relocation error: /target/usr/bin/dpkg-deb: symbol fgetpos, version GLIBC_2.2 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference.
...ldconfig runs. But when I reboot (using the hard drive) I still get the
same message:
init: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.2' not found (required by init)
Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init!
do you have any other recommendations?
Thanks,
Scott
