- Thanks for your kind suggestion: here is my (system) libc.so.6:$ ldd /bin/bash linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007fffb3dfd000) libtermcap.so.2 => /lib64/libtermcap.so.2 (0x0000003cb0c00000) libdl.so.2 => /lib64/libdl.so.2 (0x0000003cae000000) libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x0000003cad800000) /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x0000003cad400000)Jun– Jun2017-02-18 11:47:23 +00:00Commented Feb 18, 2017 at 11:47
- you mean install a glib package [like here] (ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libc) in "/mydirectory/libc/directory", and run the command "ln -sv /my/libc/directory /usr/lib64"?Jun– Jun2017-02-18 11:51:47 +00:00Commented Feb 18, 2017 at 11:51
- my OS is :cat /etc/*-release CentOS release 5.10 (Final), you mention Debians, do your think the same solution also apply to my OS?Jun– Jun2017-02-18 11:54:25 +00:00Commented Feb 18, 2017 at 11:54
- @Jun Download and extract a binary (precompiled) glibc distribution, ideally a glibc2.7 one. Extract it into a specific directory in your home (for example, /home/jun/glibc4r). Then start the R from the command line, but prefixing with LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/jun/glibc4r . Here you give the path which contains the libc.so.6 from your downloaded glibc. It will result that this command, and only this command, will first try to load libraries from your directory, and only then will it check for the system libs.peterh– peterh2017-02-18 12:26:48 +00:00Commented Feb 18, 2017 at 12:26
- I could not find a binary glibc distribution. So I decided to install one from source, but met some issues. I will post a new question about it. A working issue now is when I tried to do configure, I had error complaining my gcc version is too old, but "gcc (GCC) 6.1.0" my gcc far exceed the required indicated in the "INSTALL" file...Jun– Jun2017-02-18 13:18:26 +00:00Commented Feb 18, 2017 at 13:18

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. shell-script), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
