I suspect that libc5 is the remnant of 5x installation. What's the safest thing to do ? remove libc5 and link libc5 to libc6 ? rebuild affected software ? ( couldn't find a relevant make.conf option, so what might a flag like that look like ? WITH_LIBC_VER=6 ? or is there something else that can be done ? also, it would be helpful to learn how to avoid this in the future.
