From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.1; Linux) Description of problem: When I'm trying to start maya I'm getting the following error: /usr/aw/maya4.5/bin/maya.bin: relocation error: /usr/aw/maya4.5/lib/libFoundation.so: symbol errno, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference Whith glibc from RedHat Linux 7.2 it works well. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): glibc-2.3.2-27.9 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Simply start maya from console. Actual Results: Maya fails with the followind message /usr/aw/maya4.5/bin/maya.bin: relocation error: /usr/aw/maya4.5/lib/libFoundation.so: symbol errno, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference Expected Results: Maya should work ;-) Additional info:
In the first place, this is maya's problem. Some programmer never bothered to read ISO C and didn't include <errno.h>. This is not optional, it is 100% wrong to add a line like extern int errno; and hope it works. The fact that it did in the past is a mere coincident. It doesn't work anymore and the third party code has to change. ld.so tries to fix up a few cases where errno is used incorrectly. But apparently this case isn't fixable. Talk to your vendor and get them to produce you a new binary which is less buggy.
There is a workaround for this, you can run the program with LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 in its environment. But please contact Maya vendor anyway so that they fix their stuff.
