DetailsI installed arch from the 0.7 beta 2 cd and upgraded pacman immediately.
Pacman updated, but then could not run, as it required GLIBC 2.4.2 (or some version like that) which was not on the system. Pacman should check that its own dependencies are met before upgrading itself! |
This task depends upon
Depends On : None
Pacman does check dependencies for any packages, including itself. It's just that it doesn't have any specific dependencies. We also provide a "pacman.static" binary in case people have runtime linker issues.
