The klibc parts of this bug were related to klibc and building in ARM mode or Thumb mode. The Ubuntu toolchain in maverick and natty default to -mthumb, but: a) klibc wasn't safe for ARM/Thumb interworking, b) klibc was built with -marm in CFLAGS but with a toolchain defaulting to -mthumb. A patch was applied to make klibc correctly use "bx" (LP #527720) and also to drop the -marm flag from the packaging (LP #683683). Since Debian has a toolchain defaulting to ARM mode and didn't particularly override the build flags, I don't think the fixes would help Debian. I've sent a patch to fix the computation of the size of ARM symbols for the syscall wrappers in klibc (Debian #618616); since this bug has been around for a long time, I doubt the patch would help either. In the bug you pointed at, Dave martin has an useful recipe to start debugging issues in the initrd like this one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/klibc/+bug/683683/comments/30 Cheers, -- Loïc Minier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-arm-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
