Hello,

Indeed, I've updated my glibc accidentally¹ on 5th October
from 2.9 to 2.10.

So all binaries, that I've built after this date are affected by this
problem (dependency on GLIBC_2.7). Example for luatex:

~/minimals/bin/linux-64/current/luatex> ldd -v beta-0.4[34].0/luatex
beta-0.43.0/luatex:
    linux-vdso.so.1 =>  (0x00007fffb6384000)
    libm.so.6 => /lib64/libm.so.6 (0x00007f65e6474000)
    libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007f65e611b000)
    /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f65e66ca000)

    Version information:
    beta-0.43.0/luatex:
        ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (GLIBC_2.3) => /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
        libc.so.6 (GLIBC_2.3) => /lib64/libc.so.6
        libc.so.6 (GLIBC_2.2.5) => /lib64/libc.so.6

    /lib64/libm.so.6:
        libc.so.6 (GLIBC_2.2.5) => /lib64/libc.so.6
    /lib64/libc.so.6:
        ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (GLIBC_PRIVATE) => /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2

I've just downgraded my glibc to 2.9 and I'm now rebuilding metapost,
luatex and pdftex. We will see in about 1 hour, if this solves the problem.

Cheers, Peter


Note 1: I only wanted to update my glib, so I've done a
        ' zypper up "*glib*" '.
