I have a big problem with a RH8 Server.
I installed fedora glibc rpm on a redhat 8.0 by mistake.
And now it is impossible to start rpm updates anymore.
rpm exits with segmentation fault.
unfortunally I have no access to the console of the server (it is in a
data center far away).
IIRC I've recovered from a similar situation once by copying select
libraries from another similar box on which I hadn't made the same
mistake to /tmp/recovery/lib, and then running something like
/tmp/recovery/lib/ld-linux.so.2 --library-path /tmp/recovery/lib \
/bin/rpm ...
Is there any chance?
Probably worth a shot.
Use ssh to login then upload the glibc source and compile it.
