Details

Description:
1. cpio: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by cpio)

for cpio, the glibc is in its' dependency, but no version specified. I have synced the pacman and then installed cpio, which means newer cpio, but older glibc, then the error occured.

IMHO, the cpio's PKGBUILD should qualify the version of glibc.

2. for libxrandr, the problem is similar, let's see:
$ ldd /usr/lib/libXrandr.so.2
linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007fffb6760000)
libXext.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x00007f368240e000)
libXrender.so.1 => /usr/lib/libXrender.so.1 (0x00007f3682203000)
libX11.so.6 => /usr/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x00007f3681ec6000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007f3681b25000)
libxcb.so.1 => /usr/lib/libxcb.so.1 (0x00007f368190a000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f3681705000)
/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f3682851000)
libXau.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXau.so.6 (0x00007f3681501000)
libXdmcp.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXdmcp.so.6 (0x00007f36812fb000)

but glibc is not in the dependency of libxrandr, especially the version of glibc.

Additional info:
* package version(s): I don't think we need the version info of cpio and libxrandr, in other words, all version.
* config and/or log files etc.

indeed, I don't think only cpio and libxrandr have this problem, maybe we need check *ALL* PKGBUILD.

We only support fully up to date systems so specifying the version of glibc is not necessary. Also, you are screwed if glibc is not on your system, so it is not needed to be specified as a dependency.
