Is there any support for glibc 2.14?

Environment

• Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6.x

Issue

• Is there any support for glibc 2.14?
• A dynamic library, libnss3.so, is required for an application; however, this appears to be built against version 2.14 of glibc, as the following message is seen:

Raw

./libnss3.so: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by ./libnss3.so)

Resolution

• RHEL 6 is based off version 2.12, and at present there are no plans for 2.14 support in RHEL 6.
• If the source rpm for nss3 is available then recompile against the 2.12 version provided, as replacing the installed version of glibc with a newer version is not recommended and unsupported.
