Can't run WingFTP v5.0+ under old Linux system (Continued)

[eordona]

With regard to this question & answer, now posted in the Knowledgebase section... Is this really the answer?!

I have read a lot about trying to update GLIBC in Linux, and most of time it involves warnings about trying to update GLIBC, and that it is a very very bad idea.

Given that CentOS 6 isn't officially end-of-life until November 30th, 2020, how about a version that still relies on GLIBC_2.12??

For CentOS, you can run the following commands:

Code: Select all

wget http://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/mosquito/myrepo-el6/epel-6-x86_64/glibc-2.17-55.fc20/glibc-2.17-55.el6.x86_64.rpm

sudo rpm -Uvh glibc-2.17-55.el6.x86_64.rpm --force --nodeps

So anything wrong?
