@dbliss please remember your terminological inexactitude, believe it or not, we read stuff and remember it here. Your question clearly sates Luckily, my system administrator was able to move my .bashrc is that not true ?

@dbliss I think what Iain means is that Luckily, my system administrator was able to move my .bashrc -- which was pointing to the broken glibc under my home directory -- and revert me to a default .bashrc. So I can log into my account again and do stuff. that was your first and direct problem solved. The cleanup that followed was only that, cleanup.

| Oct 12, 2015 at 7:38 | comment | added | abcd | haha, a bit vainglorious (sorry, did i say a bit?), but yes, this is the answer. i have indeed been educated . . . about serverfault.com. everything in this answer had already been stated elsewhere, but this is the best summary of the relevant points. | |
