Pacman not working - `GLIBC_2.16' not found

Hi all,

I was updating the system after a few months, got many errors with /lib and after fixing some of them I'm stuck with this one:

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

I downloaded and extracted the GLIBC package manually from here. The same with pacman package. Still not working. I used the

tar -xvpf name_of_the_package -C / --exclude .PKGINFO --exclude .INSTALL

What should I do?

What do you get if you do:

ls -l /usr/lib/libc.so.6

I use

tar xfJ pkgname

and use a File Manager to copy to /
rollback glibc from arm.konnichi.com (search it)
it's a missing/corrupt symlink I believe.
