dash update gets installed sooner than glibc which breaks updates from 20221001 images

I hope I am posting this in the right place. I've tried to set up a fresh install of Void on Raspberry Pi 4 (8 GB RAM, 64 GB MMC), but both the image method and the rootfs method resulted in the same issue: the installation was unable to upgrade.

When performing the first upgrade using xbps-install -Su, the following shows up (had to type this to my main PC, might contain some errors):

diffutils-3.8_1: updating to 3.9_1 ...
/bin/sh: /usr/lib64/libc.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.33' not found (required by /bin/sh)
/bin/sh: /usr/lib64/libc.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by /bin/sh)

I think it has nothing to do with diffutils, since very similar error pops up whenever I try to run /bin/sh or dash afterwards. The system did not show any graphic output after rebooting either (suggesting a broken shell?).

Is it possible that the image and tarball have to be rebuilt with correct Glibc versions?

dash gets updated before glibc which causes this issue. Could you try running xbps-install -Su glibc and then repeating the update? This is definitely not supposed to happen, but I can reproduce it.

@paper42, I've performed another test on a fresh install and xbps insisted on updating itself before doing anything else. xbps-install -u xbps pulled in the new glibc as a dependency and everything was fine afterwards. Thanks for the fix.
