Pacman still won't let me upgrade glibc

Hello

I did everything as per https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/De … iki:usrlib . Here's the output of mentioned commands.

pacman -Su

As I see it, no other package than glibc and lib32-glibc owns any file in /lib.

Re: Pacman still won't let me upgrade glibc

Enable the [multilib] repo in pacman.conf. Then do...  "pacman -Syu --ignore glibc; pacman -Su"
