Hi,

Anyone successfully built and using glibc-2.12.1 yet?

I see the tree just pushed an update down from 2.11.2 to 2.12.1,
and downgrading that package is decidedly non-trivial. Only
comment I can find at this early stage is flameeye's blog, and
this makes me quadruple nervous:




And if you say that “the new GLIBC works for me”, are you saying
that the package itself builds or if it’s actually integrated
correctly? Because, you know, I used to rebuild the whole system
whenever I made a change to basic system packages when I
maintained Gentoo/FreeBSD, and saying that it’s ready for ~arch
when you haven’t even rebuilt the system (and you haven’t, or you
would have noticed that m4 was broken) is definitely something
I’d define as reckless and I’d venture to say you’re not good
material to work on the quality assurance status.

“correctness” in the case of the system C library would be “it a
t least leaves the system set building and running”; glibc 2.12
does not work this way.

OK here on ~amd64, but you got me worried so I emerged m4 to check
and that went OK too. 

I got a couple of replies, all like this one - positive.

Thanks, all. I'll start the update later on tonight and let 'er run.

I think that i have some misconfiguration in CFLAGS, but i don't know solve this error.

Some hint???

Thanks for now.
