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

    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.

    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.

    Hopefully they don't break Steam games yet again with this release. I'll defer to compile it for a few days to make sure that it runs fine elsewhere.

    Now that it's not brand new to glibc, are any distros using that 'HWCAPS' feature that allows binaries to branch to different optimizations based on hardware they're running on?

    It is supposed to be released ... BUT IT IS NOT RELEASED at this moment. No tarballs, no announcement.

    I dislike articles that state something which did not happen.

    I don't remember a glibc update that didn't break Microsoft Teams (which I depend on for work).

    Running zypper dup now, before it comes to Tumbleweed.

    As far as i know steam wasnt broken. Only certain software that still is broken, except you patched it on your end (or your distro did)
