  • glibc (2.8~20080505-0ubuntu7) intrepid; urgency=low
    
      * Add debian/patches/ubuntu/stack-guard-quick-randomization.diff: do

  • glibc (2.8~20080505-0ubuntu6) intrepid; urgency=low
    
      [ Matthias Klose ]
      * Add debian/patches/any/regexp_h___REPB_PREFIX.diff patch (LP: #234056):
        fix xview FTBFS error (Devid Filoni). LP: #234056.
    
      [ Michael Vogt ]
      * sysdeps/depflags.pl:
        - really add "findutils (>= 4.4.0-2ubuntu2)" to the libc6 depends,
          this needs to be done in sysdeps/depflags.pl the regular
          depend lines in debian/control.in/libc are just ignored
          (LP: #234345)

  • glibc (2.8~20080505-0ubuntu5) intrepid; urgency=low
    
      * Do not run the testsuite on hppa ("threading on hppa is kinda goofy,
        so the thread-stressing testsuite breaks").

  • glibc (2.8~20080505-0ubuntu4) intrepid; urgency=low
    
      [ Michael Vogt ]
      * debian/control:
        - add a depends on findutils (>= 4.4.0-2ubuntu2) to libc6 to ensure
          that xargs is unpacked before the new libc6 is unpacked. The xargs
          from hardy crashes with the libc6 from intrepid (LP: #234345)
