Subject: RPM complains about TLS (?)
A lot of people seem to have RPM woes, but I couldn't find this exact problem in
the last couple of month's archive, so apologies if it has already been answered.
Recently I was trying to update the glibc packages on a redhat8 machine to the
rawhide versions, when, after apparently completing the install (using -h, so I
could see the progress), RPM hung. I left it for about 30mins before killing the
process just to make sure, but 0 CPU usage, no disk activity etc seemed pretty
conclusive. Only, it seems RPM hadn't finished, and I now have both glibc-2.2.93
and glibc-2.3.1 installed (or at least the RPM database believes so).
The problem is that I can no longer perform *any* rpm operation, it always
returns with the error:
"cannot handle file 'libc.so.6' with TLS data"
Now, I have no idea what TLS means in this context, but doing an rpm -qf on
/lib/libc.so.6 claims that both versions of glibc own the file, which seems
wrong. I've tried removing the __db files from /var/lib/rpm and rebuilding the
db, but to no avail (it produces no errors, and verify_db similarly is ok). At
the moment my only option looks like a complete reinstall, since I can't up- or
down-grade anything.
Does anyone here have any suggestions as to whether this is fixable, and if so
how it might be done?
Help greatly appreciated
Ben
