Subject: [gentoo-user] After update to glibc-2.4: /usr/bin/python: relocation error: /lib/libresolv.so.2: symbol __res_iclose, version GLIBC_PRIVATE not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference

1 Hello!
2
3 I just finished the compilation and installation of glibc 2.4
4 and got the following:
5
6 >>> Original instance of package unmerged safely.
7
8 * Gentoo's glibc no longer includes mdns.
9 * If you want mdns, emerge the sys-auth/nss-mdns package.
10
11 >>> Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache...
12 >>> sys-libs/glibc-2.4 merged.
13 /usr/bin/python: relocation error: /lib/libresolv.so.2: symbol __res_iclose, version GLIBC_PRIVATE not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference

16 But I can still execute /usr/bin/python:
17
18 alexander@blatt ~ $ /usr/bin/python --version
19 Unknown option: --
20 usage: /usr/bin/python [option] ... [-c cmd | -m mod | file | -] [arg] ...
21
22 Any idea about what broke?
23
24 Oh, I just noticed the following:
25
26 alexander@blatt ~ $ ls -lad /var/db/pkg/*/*glibc*
27 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 864 19. Feb 19:13 /var/db/pkg/sys-libs/glibc-2.3.6-r3
28 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 856 11. Mär 21:49 /var/db/pkg/sys-libs/glibc-2.4
29
30 Why do I have two glibc's installed? glibc is not slotted.
31
32 Is it safe to unmerge glibc-2.3.6-r3?
