Which versions of glibc do different versions of RedHat ship with?
Can anyone tell me (or point me in the direction of an online resource which outlines) which versions of glibc ship with which versions of RedHat?
This RedHat document indicates versions of GCC but doesn't mention glibc...
Solution 1:
DistroWatch typically has a pretty good run down of what each distro has.
Red Hat's run down
Solution 2:
Edit: The RedHat documentation used to list the version of the libraries they included. They have since removed that information.
This data is from distrowatch. Sorry for the sideways scroll and long ASCII text. StackOverflow doesn't support Markdown Tables.
