GNU C Library "glibc" 2.37 Released

[NateHubbard]

Well what's worse is that I was tempted to try it out and - of course - it totally broke the system with a segmentation fault. There was no chance to save the installation with a chroot for the same reason. Either one of my extra patches is at fault that applied and compiled fine or one of my CFLAGS went rogue with that version. My grief is still deep for the loss of all the time for optimizing my system. Once again, Glibc proved to be a hell of a biest to tame.

Updated fine for me on Gentoo. What extra patches are you talking about?

Have a look at my repo albeit I locally removed some non-applying patches (mostly from mandriva and others that went into the release). The others were mostly taken from Clear Linux or the libc-alpha mailing list. I'll clean this up once Clear Linux updates to 2.37.

I think this release includes a lot of the work required to get Glibc building with Clang as per https://www.collabora.com/news-and-b...ibc-with-llvm/

It's about time glibc is finally buildable with Clang + LLD.
