No. The problem was that sorcery messes things up if the old and the

uhm, thats a bold statement, if you are trying to explain to me why
glibc wasnt installing before. I spent a weekend trying to fix it. Id
love to see you convince me it was sorcery's fault, the problem was that
the makefile would remove the old dynamic loader, ala mv, then try to
link in the new one ala ln, but ln is a dynamic...oops.
It is most likely a sorcery/spell problem as both Gentoo and Lunar (IIRC)
have no problem on the upgrade, not sure about Sorcery.

I noticed the lunar 'spell' had the following lines in it's BUILD file:
# Preserve the old glibc temporarily
cp /lib/ld-linux.so.2 /lib/ld-lunar.so &&
cp /lib/libc.so.6 /lib/libc-lunar.so &&
cp /lib/libdl.so.2 /lib/libdl-lunar.so &&
cp /lib/libm.so.6 /lib/libm-lunar.so &&
cp /lib/librt.so.1 /lib/librt-lunar.so &&
cp /lib/libpthread.so.0 /lib/libpthread-lunar.so &&
cp /lib/libnss_files.so.2 /lib/libnss_files-lunar.so &&
cp /lib/libutil.so.1 /lib/libutil-lunar.so &&
# Setup links for libraries
sln /lib/ld-lunar.so /lib/ld-linux.so.2 &&
sln /lib/libc-lunar.so /lib/libc.so.6 &&
sln /lib/libdl-lunar.so /lib/libdl.so.2 &&

sln /lib/libutil-lunar.so /lib/libutil.so.1 &&
# This removes the old glibc
prepare_install &&
# And now we install the new
make install &&
# Rebuild the ld cache
rm -f /etc/ld.so.cache 2>/dev/null &&
ldconfig &&
# Remove the temporary libc
rm /lib/ld-lunar.so &&
rm /lib/libc-lunar.so &&
rm /lib/libdl-lunar.so &&
rm /lib/libm-lunar.so &&
rm /lib/librt-lunar.so &&
rm /lib/libpthread-lunar.so &&
rm /lib/libnss_files-lunar.so &&
rm /lib/libutil-lunar.so &&
That could be why they didn't have that problem.
