The glibc-2.14 toolchain update is in [testing]. Here is a summary of the changes.
glibc-2.14-1 - major version release - add patch to fix libdl crash
Looks like the glibc update will interfere with other rebuilds (e.g.: Perl).
At least my pidgin package is affected, and will give "/lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found" errors if moved to [extra] without glibc being moved to [core] at the same time.
What's the preferred course of action we take here? Rebuild affected packages with the old glibc? Wait for glibc to move to [core] before moving the Perl rebuilds?
I thought the perl rebuilds were done a long time before the glibc updated hit [testing], so they should be fine. I would not expect glibc to move any time soon given the crash we are currently seeing. Allan
