Red Hat 5.0 2.0.31
Installed and compiled 2.1.85 without any problems.
I upgraded ncurses with:
rpm -Uvh ncurses-4.1-12.i386.rpm ncurses-devel-4.1-12.i386.rpm
The RPM install broke on terminfo. I mv'd the terminfo link to terminfo-bak
and forced RPM to install again. The good news is, this fixed my terminfo
problem. The bad news is, my libc.so.5 has gone missing. I can't get on the
box right now, but the error message is something to the effect that
libc.so.5 doesn't exist.
Did ncurses blast my libc5 into oblivion, or am I making this more
difficult than it really is? I suspect I'm experiencing yet more of the
libc6/glibc2 wierdness, and I've looked at the glibc2 FAQ but found nothing
of any use.
Is there a definitive and comprehensive HOWTO or FAQ online that will
instruct this poor newbie on how to straighten this libc thing out and keep
it that way?
