Update the glibc from 2.2 to 2.4

[Hag_Sub]

Uh as the title suggests. I recently downloaded midori (browser for kindle) and the files it uses are compiled in glibc 2.4(checked by using command "ldd --verbose libpthread.so.0") and the system contains the glibc version 2.2(checked by using ldd --version). So I want to upgrade the glibc version **My kindle is PW3 so max version is 5.16.2.1.1** so updates via amazon are not possible

It's not really possible. Don't try to modify the /lib/libc.so, it will brick your Kindle!
And old libc versions are the most annoying part of Kindle development, you can believe me.
Where did you get the Midori browser?
If your Kindle is below 5.16.2, you can try an older version from this forum.
Otherwise you might try to copy a newer libc library that's compatible with the kindle in the midori folder and run LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./midori
(but it's not guaranteed that it will work)

Actually the links on that post were all expired i actually borrowed zip file from another person idk if he has the 2.2 version too. And can you hint me about how do I change the content of elf(bin) files like libpthread.so.0 or others like i mean the code difference b/w 2.2 and 2.4 is just the place where 2.4 is written the rest must be same

And about 2.4 being compatible with 5.16.2.1.1 well the official amazon page says no and i don't think I will be able to try it any soon. So if anyone has another alternative do mention please

And about Adding glibc 2.4 in the same directory I tried it... After unziping it is almost bricked my kindle...well out of storage(total 4gb and left about 300mb)
