CentOS 6.9 升级 glibc 2.12 到 2.17（qbit）

前言

• 当前日期是 2022.7.6，CentOS 6 停止维护更新日期是 2020.11.30，CentOS 6 已停止维护近两年
• 由于种种原因，qbit 需要在 CentOS 6.9 上通过 Miniconda 安装 Python 3.8，发现 glibc 版本太旧装不上，于是试验升级了glibc

• 初始环境

  CentOS 6.9 x86_64
  glibc 2.12

步骤

• 直接安装 MiniConda3 报错

  $ sh Miniconda3-py38_4.12.0-Linux-x86_64.sh 
  WARNING:
    The installer is not compatible with the version of the Linux distribution
    installed on your system. The version of GLIBC is no longer supported.
    Found version 2.12, which is less than 2.17
  Aborting installation.
  

• 查看当前 glibc 版本

  $ ldd --version
  ldd (GNU libc) 2.12

• 切换软件仓库（centos-vault源）

   curl -o /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo https://mirrors.aliyun.com/repo/Centos-vault-6.10.repo

• 生成缓存

  yum makecache

• 用 github 上的脚本升级 glibc，脚本内容如下

  #!/bin/bash
  
  # update glibc to 2.17 for CentOS 6
  
  GLIBC=glibc
  OS=el6
  SERVER=https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/mosquito/myrepo-el6
  VERSION=2.17-55
  FULL_VERSION=$GLIBC-$VERSION.fc20
  X64=x86_64
  I386=i386
  I636=i686
  REPO_32=epel-6-$I386
  REPO_64=epel-6-$X64
  
  SERVER_32=$SERVER/$REPO_32/$FULL_VERSION
  RPM_32=$VERSION.$OS.$I636.rpm
  SERVER_64=$SERVER/$REPO_64/$FULL_VERSION
  RPM_64=$VERSION.$OS.$X64.rpm
  
  # Packages

  P_2=$GLIBC-common
  P_3=$GLIBC-devel
  P_4=$GLIBC-headers
  P_5=$GLIBC-static
  P_6=$GLIBC-utils
  P_7=nscd
  
  # Required as dependency of glibc-utils
  sudo yum install --assumeyes gd
  
  # 64-bit
  sudo rpm -Uvh --force $SERVER_64/$P_1-$RPM_64 $SERVER_64/$P_2-$RPM_64 $SERVER_64/$P_3-$RPM_64 $SERVER_64/$P_4-$RPM_64 $SERVER_64/$P_5-$RPM_64 $SERVER_64/$P_6-$RPM_64 $SERVER_64/$P_7-$RPM_64
  # Print out versions
  strings /lib64/libc.so.6 | grep GLIBC

• 再次检查当前 glibc 版本（不用重启）

  $ ldd --version
  ldd (GNU libc) 2.17
