RedHat 7.3 + glibc 2.2
Right now I have one box that's rh 7.3 with glibc 2.2 and all the files that go with it are for 2.2. i need to upgrade to glibc 2.3 for an app.
fame:~# rpm -qa | grep glibc
glibc-common-2.2.5-34
glibc-kernheaders-2.4-7.14
glibc-2.2.5-34
glibc-devel-2.2.5-34
should i just erase these rpm files, and then just install all of the glibc 2.3 rpm files, or how should i do this? or should i just go grab glibc 2.3 (source) and just compile and install? Any ideas?
I mean I have a general idea here, but I would much rather do this safely.. i was thinking just rpm -e those files and install the glibc 2.3 source. ? but i think that not all of those rpms will erase, and they might end up breaking other things, or they just wont uninstall because other rpms are attached to them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all
