bash appears to have a dependency on glibc-2.3 which is not identified in the rpm package. bash will install and run properly until commands are executed which will produce the following error; /bin/bash: relocation error: /bin/bash: symbol __ctype_b_loc, version GLIBC_2.3 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.05b-33 The bash package should have a dependancy on the required version of glibc.
I understood that glibc's symbol versioning was supposed to take care of this. Jakub?
