glibc (2.9-9) unstable; urgency=low

  * mips/cvs-context.diff: add missing part from upstream.

glibc (2.9-8) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Aurelien Jarno ]
  * Update Swedish debconf translation, by Martin Bagger.  Closes: #522982.
  * mips/cvs-context.diff: new patch from upstream to add getcontext,
    setcontext, makecontext, swapcontext.
  * any/submitted-mount_h.diff: new patch to add MNT_DETACH and MNT_EXPIRE to
    sys/mount.h.  Closes: #523952.
  * arm/submitted-fpu_control_h.diff: new patch to disable macros from
    <fpu_control.h> on EABI.  Closes: #525261.
  * any/cvs-iconv-utf16.diff: new patch from upstream to reject UTF-8-encoded
    UTF-16 surrogates in iconv.  Closes: #525299.
  * any/local-getaddrinfo-interface.diff: ignore addresses with no interface
    assigned while sorting with rule 7.  Closes: #521439.
  * any/cvs-broken_dns.diff: new patch from CVS to provide a fallback for
    broken DNS server while doing unified IPv4/IPv6 requests. The first lookup
    will be slow, but subsequent requests will fallback to the previous
    behaviour. This can be enabled by default by setting 'single-request' in
    /etc/resolv.conf.
  * debhelper.in/libc.NEWS: add entry explaining the new behaviour and the new
    option.
  * any/local-disable-gethostbyname4.diff: disabled this patch to re-enable
    unified IPv4/IPv6 requests.  Closes: bug#343140, bug#435646.
  * localedata/cvs-el_CY-el_GR-frac_digits.diff: new patch from CVS to fix
    frac_digits and int_frac_digits on el_CY ad el_GR locales.  Closes:
    bug#511621.
  * mips_asm_unistd.h, sysdeps/mipsel.mk, sysdeps/mips.mk: use our own version
    of unistd.h corresponding to the one of a 2.6.24 kernel to workaround kernel
    bugs on the build daemons.
  * any/cvs-binutils_2.20.diff: new patch from upstream to fix build failure
    with binutils 2.20.

  [ Petr Salinger ]
  * kfreebsd/local-sysdeps.diff: update to revision 2482 (from glibc-bsd).
    Closes: #522686. Thanks to Jan Christoph Nordholz.

  [ Samuel Thibault ]
  * hurd-i386/cvs-rtld.diff: new patch, fixes boot of glibc built with
    binutils >= 2.19.

glibc (2.9-7) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Aurelien Jarno ]
  * Update German debconf translation, by Helge Kreutzman.  Closes: #519992.
  * Update testsuite results on alpha, tst-timer.out exits with SIGILL on
    some machines, it was already the case with glibc 2.7 on the same
    machines.
  * Update testsuite results on hppa, tst-posix_fallocate.out and
    tst-makecontext.out are known to fail with a 32-bit kernel.
  * debian/script.in/nsscheck.sh: fix a typo.  Closes: #520455.
  * kfreebsd/local-sysdeps.diff: update to revision 2390 (from glibc-bsd).
  * libc6.1.symbols.alpha: fix package name for private symbols.

  [ Samuel Thibault ]
  * debian/rules.d/debhelper.mk: let grep libpthread.so fail because on
    hurd-i386 glibc does not provide it.

glibc (2.9-6) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Samuel Thibault ]
  * debian/patches/hurd-i386/local-tls-support.diff: fix typo in tlsdesc.sym.

  [ Aurelien Jarno ]
  * debian/po/de.po: fix German translation.  Closes: bug#519612.
  * Update French debconf translation, by Christian Perrier.  Closes: #519662.
  * any/local-disable-gethostbyname4.diff: disable unified lookup for
    getaddrinfo(). While unified lookup fix the problem of DNS servers simply
    dropping AAAA requests, it breaks lookup with even more broken DNS servers
    only returning a broken AAAA answer. As it seems the second type of broken
    DNS concerns more users, let's revert to the old behaviour.  Closes:
    #516218.
  * any/submitted-getaddrinfo-lo.diff: correctly handle the lo interface and
    associated addresses when checking for native connection.  Closes:
    bug#519545.
  * debian/control.in/libc: change -dbg packages to section debug.
  * debian/control.in/main: update Standards-Version to 3.8.1:
    - debian/local/etc_init.d/glibc.sh: move set -e out from the shebang line.
    - debian/debhelper.in/nscd.init: exit successfully if the daemon was
      already running.
  * debian/debhelper.in/nscd.dirs: remove /var/run/nscd directory.

    #517386.

  [ Aurelien Jarno ]
  * testsuite-checking/expected-results-i486-linux-gnu-libc,
    testsuite-checking/expected-results-i686-linux-i686: remove
    testgrp.out from the ignore list, it was due to a misconfiguration
    of the build daemon.
  * debhelper.in/libc.{preinst,postint}: bump the version triggering the
    restart of NSS related services to 2.9-5.
  * debhelper.in/libc.postint: change cupsys into cups.
  * script.in/nsscheck.sh: convert mysql-server into mysql. Closes:
    bug#172123.
  * merge lost patch from lenny:
    - debhelper.in/locales.config: use previous debconf settings if
      /etc/locales does not exists. Closes: bug#517884.
  * debian/local/manpages/ld.so.8: fix a typo.  Closes: bug#518394.
  * debhelper.in/libc.preinst, debhelper.in/libc.templates: warn users
    about the need to disable xscreensaver and xlockmore before libc6
    is unpacked.  Closes: bug#517795.

    bits/pthreadtypes.h.  Move from series.hurd-i386 to series.
  * debian/patches/hurd-i386/local-tls-dtv-offset.diff: remove patch, make
    local-tls-support.diff create tlsdesc.sym instead.
  * debian/patches/hurd-i386/local-no-strerror_l.diff: remove patch, replaced
    by...
