[SOLVED] Upgrading after four month (version `GLIBC_2.16' not found)

Hi all!
After some time I decide to upgrade and starting with read the manual at the site.
Firstly, I run

pacman -Syu --ignore glibc,curl

this exit successfully

Secondly,

pacman -Su

but this give me error

pacman: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.16' not found (required by /usr/lib/libarchive.so.12)

pacman always return this error, so I don't install glibc manually

help me, pls smile

i tried to untar glibc-2.16.0-4

 tar -xvf glibc-2.16.0-4-i686.pkg.tar.xz -C / 

it exit with

tar: lib: Cannot create symlink to `usr/lib': File exists
tar: lib64: Cannot create symlink to `usr/lib': File exists
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors

ok, glibc untared(symlinks created with my hands in ramfs mode), but nothing happens (only kdm not start, but startx works) and error while i'm trying to use pacman is same

pacman: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.16' not found (required by /usr/lib/libarchive.so.12)
