Hi,
I have compiled a new version (2.30.2) of the Glib2.
If I use Gslapt to remove the "old" Glib2 other pakage are eliminated.
I can upgrade the standard library version with the new one without recompile all the dependent pakages?
If the answer to the question is yes how?

Thanks

Try using spkg, specifically spkg -u possibly with some other arguments too.

Probably you're going to break your system with such a core library upgrade, if the other applications installed (including core system applications) are built for another version that's not compatible. A big part of your system would need a rebuild then and you would need to know how to fix a broken system.
If you know what you're doing, go ahead. Otherwise better not.
