Package: glibc Version: 2.3.2-5 Severity: critical Fails to build from source on hppa, and that's a good thing, if it ever built it would be disasterous to userspace. We need to add a system by where debian can list "Allowed failures" during 'make -k check' runs on the glibc testsuite (next on my todo).
I have, with the help of many others, fixed a large number of our current regressions. Minor or perhaps major problems still remain in our librt signal handling functions (usually to do with proper restoring of our PIC register across signals). Current analysis of glibc test-suite failures can be seen here: http://lists.parisc-linux.org/pipermail/parisc-linux/2003-September/020931.html Patches for upstream CVS are listed in the above email aswell. I have created a set of debian .dpatch's to apply to 2.3.2-5, but I need to carry out more testing to see if the signal problems we have are dire enough that they would wreck userspace. I'll be doing deb builds this week and asking for chroot testers on lists.parisc-linux.org. Cheers, Carlos. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
