glibc issue
I know there are some threads, I am aware of the documentation within the wiki (which I already read)
Case: I got a VPS with some data I would like to save. Unfortunatly I need to install rsync or scp to do that. Thus I need to upgrade. The image is from 2011.08.
# pacman -Ss glibc
core/glibc 2.16.0-2 (base) [installed: 2.14-5]
GNU C Library
extra/kdesdk-kmtrace 4.8.4-1 (kde kdesdk)
A KDE tool to assist with malloc debugging using glibc´s "mtrace" functionality
extra/nss-mdns 0.10-5
glibc plugin providing host name resolution via mDNS the command "pacman -Syu --ignore glibc" fails, if I try to upgrade pacman first:
# pacman -Syu --ignore glibc
:: Synchronizing package databases...
core is up to date
downloading extra.db...

:: The following packages should be upgraded first :
pacman
:: Do you want to cancel the current operation
:: and upgrade these packages now? [Y/n] y

warning: ignoring package glibc-2.16.0-2
warning: cannot resolve "glibc>=2.15", a dependency of "pacman"
:: The following package cannot be upgraded due to unresolvable dependencies:
pacman
Do you want to skip the above package for this upgrade? [y/N] n
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: pacman: requires glibc>=2.15If I deny a prior upgrade of pacman I get this:
# pacman -Syu --ignore glibc

Do you want to skip the above packages for this upgrade? [y/N]Which I am not sure how to answer, as I can not afford the risk of a screwed system again

Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded. Thanks for any tipps. Is there a statically linked rsync somewhere around so I can make sure I can backup my stuff first, I already wasted some bucks by messing with pacman some time and busting glibc completly

Note: for installs that have not been updated during 2012, it will save you some time to do:
pacman -U http://pkgbuild.com/~allan/glibc-2.16.0-1-<arch>.pkg.tar.xzwhere <arch> is replaced by i686 or x86_64 as required. Add a single "-d" if needed.

Re: glibc issue
I already tried with that link, but could swear it was a deadend link this morning :> will test that. Thanks fatboy, will try that if everything else fails
