I have just run into a issue where the driver for a ASPEED video card worked in wheezy, and now is complaining about glibc not being at 2.14. When I look to see the version installed, it is 2.13. Does anyone know if there was a reversion or how I might go about resolving this? Thanks -- Shane

The libc development forked early on in the linux development, as GNU libc wasn't useable on linux systems. This was rectified in glibc 2.0, however the linux libc was up to v5, so glibc is sometimes called libc6. You will find that a lot of programs are compiled against libc5 since it should exi

If you upgrade a Debian 1.3 system to 2.0, or install libc5 on a new 2.0 system, it will have the necessary libc files to meet the dependencies of the netscape4 installer and the installer will successfully install the libc6 version of netscape. The installer also installs a wrapper script which

The difference between libc5 and libc6 is in the name "glibc2". Libc5 was predominantly Linux only. libc6/glibc2 is gnu libc. It is installed (or will be) on systems besides Linux. This makes porting between unices easier and makes the differences between them less. glibc2 is m
