Hi,

I noticed this in hardened profile :
# Mask off anything greater than glibc-2.6.x for now.
# 2009-02-11 gengor
>=sys-libs/glibc-2.7


Is there any good (means "critical") reason for this downgrade ?
Because it causes problem with some packages that needs higher glibc version.
For example :
- iproute2 needs >=glibc-2.7



  ('installed', '/', 'sys-libs/glibc-2.9_p20081201-r1', 'nomerge') pulled in 
by
    >=sys-libs/glibc-2.7 required by ('installed', '/', 'sys-
apps/iproute2-2.6.28', 'nomerge')
    (and 12 more)      


Thanks for your feedback

Regards,
Guillaume
