In order to join the Thieves guild without the glitch you have to do the Thieves Guild Quest before you do the main story mission, " A Cornered Rat".
Or just go in. Unless you're RPing, it's not like you have to Keerava either as long as you know where you're going.Not sure what glitch you refer to, but you can enter the ratway and the Ragged Flagon for the main quest without having to join the thieves guild. If that's the direction you want to go in, talk to Keerava in the Bee and Barb instead of doing Brynjolf's job.
