Is asking you to install glibc-devel
Comment 2 Lewis Smith 2023-10-12 20:26:21 CEST
I thought glibc-devel is always installed. The error is citing >=2.4-1 ; could it be that the pkg is installed but not recent enough?
I must have a look at M8.

@Frédéric
You must have updated glibc often enough. Is this a problem just with the most recent update?

Yes, that's the reason of the problem. I forgot I added /^glibc/ to /etc/urpmi/skip.list some time ago because glibc was in Testing and it prevented other packages from being listed. Removing it from skip.list fixes the problem.

Sorry for the noise.
