I have updated my system with emerge -u world after an emerge rsync,
and everything went right.
But now, i am no longer able to emerge anything. Whatever the option
used, emerge fails :
root sur locki # emerge
python2.2: /lib/libpthread.so.0: version `GLIBC_2.3.2' not found
(required by python2.2)

I try to launch python, and the issue is due to it :
root sur locki # python
python: /lib/libpthread.so.0: version `GLIBC_2.3.2' not found
(required by python)

of course, etc-update, and so on, doesn't work anymore :
root sur locki # etc-update
python2.2: /lib/libpthread.so.0: version `GLIBC_2.3.2' not found
(required by python2.2)
python2.2: /lib/libpthread.so.0: version `GLIBC_2.3.2' not found
(required by python2.2)

What can I do... any idea ? I've tried to go in
/usr/portage/sys-apps/portage/files and do what is explain in
README.RESCUE, but it doesn't work at all... :-(
please help.
Best regards,

You upgraded then downgraded glibc, probably by switching
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~arch" on/off.

Get the rescue glibc tarball from http://cvs.gentoo.org/~avenj/bins/ and
follow the instructions in the README. Be sure you have
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" set at all times (in make.conf).

Yes, I did the same thing. I fetched Python sources from www.python.org
(using lynx, links did not work since it needs libpthread also), compiled it
(with thread support enabled). This way emerge works, so I could emerge
python from gentoo mirror. Then I add the ~arch and emerge works fine. I had
to remove fetched .tbz2 files, since were based on false ACCEPTH_KEYWORDS
settings.

I made this, and it works... my problem has been resolved thanks to
your explainations. I feel better now ;-)
