Tim,
the question is not that bad or silly at all :) The naming and version
numbering can be confusing. Sorry, that I can not list you each glibc
version with its package version number. Just for the actual glibc main
version, which is 6 - the previous was libc5 - you may see:
$ for i in $(locate libc.so.6); do echo "found in: $i"; j=$(rpm -qf
"$i"); echo "$i is part of package $j"; done
found in: /lib/i686/libc.so.6
/lib/i686/libc.so.6 is part of package glibc-2.3.2-101.4
found in: /lib/tls/libc.so.6
/lib/tls/libc.so.6 is part of package glibc-2.3.2-101.4
found in: /lib/libc.so.6
/lib/libc.so.6 is part of package glibc-2.3.2-101.4
So libc.so.6 means libc6 means glibc version 6 and is packaged in the
glibc-2.3.2-101.4 RPM. Someone else may give you a more precise and
better informed answer than me.
