^^^^^^^^^^^
libc.so.2.0 won't be ever used again, only .2.2.
Basically, you need the highest minor number version for each major
number version of a shared lib for compatibility. Of course, you only
need it if any of your binaries still references them. You should be
able to find about this by running `ldd' on the binaries, and parse
the output. For example:
$ ldd /usr/bin/* 2>/dev/null | awk '/^\t/ {print $3}' | sort -u
/usr/lib/libc.so.2.2
/usr/lib/libc.so.3.0
/usr/lib/libcipher.so.2.0
/usr/lib/libcrypt.so.2.0
/usr/lib/libcurses.so.2.0
/usr/lib/libdialog.so.3.0
/usr/lib/libftpio.so.4.0
/usr/lib/libgnuregex.so.2.0
/usr/lib/libipx.so.2.0
/usr/lib/libkvm.so.2.0
/usr/lib/libm.so.2.0
/usr/lib/libmytinfo.so.2.0
/usr/lib/libncurses.so.3.0
/usr/lib/libreadline.so.3.0
/usr/lib/librpcsvc.so.2.0
/usr/lib/libskey.so.2.0
/usr/lib/libtcl.so.75.1
/usr/lib/libtelnet.so.2.0
/usr/lib/libtermcap.so.2.1
/usr/lib/libutil.so.2.1
(Eeek! I've still got a binary referencing libc.so.2... :-)

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
