It might help if you stated which version of packages you currently |
| 45 |
have installed - specifically glibc. |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
As for recovery, you most likely need to boot to a live image (CD or |
| 48 |
USB) then chroot into the existing system. I'm only guessing as to |
| 49 |
what is the minimal list of files you will need to replace, but I'd see |
| 50 |
if you can find or create a binary package of the latest glibc and then |
| 51 |
install or unpack that to your system. |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
As to whether this might be a bug in portage, I'd say you need to |
| 54 |
provide more details about exactly what you did. What emerge line, |
| 55 |
what you mean by installation via binary packages, and where you got |
| 56 |
those binary packages. |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
If you do still have a running shell, does emerge still run at all? |
