Requires: glibc >= 2.13.90-4
This implies that even if I build it with glibc-2.13.0, it still won't work.
Maybe the comment is badly worded, but the problem is not that you
can't build against particular glibc. It is that if you build with
glibc < 2.13.90-4 then you must install with glibc < 2.13.90-4, and
conversely if you build with glibc >= 2.13.90-4 then you must install
with glibc >= 2.13.90-4. There is no way to express this using RPM
dependencies.
