ls /lib
you'll see a bunch of files with the version number which are all part of the 
glibc package with is MUCH more than just libc...but...
lookfor libc-2.2.4.so (which is the version I use) you'll also see symlinks 
called
libc-6.so this is the unix libc equivelent version for those programs that 
require unix libc..Its just a link so those programs can find what they are 
looking for within our glibc libs.
