Bug 496752 – sys-libs/glibc-2.17: stabilize

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description SpanKY 2014-01-02 11:25:49 UTC]

this should be a much simpler version bump than 2.16 i think.  some arches have already gone stable too.

[Comment 1 Matt Turner 2014-01-03 01:53:34 UTC]

alpha stable

[Comment 2 Steev Klimaszewski (RETIRED) 2014-01-03 03:54:56 UTC]

Just out of curiosity, since glibc 2.16 just went stable 2 months ago, why 2.17 so soon?

[Comment 3 SpanKY 2014-01-03 13:03:58 UTC]

(In reply to Steev Klimaszewski from comment #2)

because 2.16 should have gone stable way sooner than it did

amd64 stable

[Comment 5 Agostino Sarubbo 2014-01-03 19:51:20 UTC]

x86 stable

Now that it is stable sys-libs/glibc-2.17

why not add some security patches I found from Debian:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=494444
runs well with my Gentoo~unstable~amd64 not hardened
Please look at my patch in details mode to understand 
what is CVE and one patch is not, but I think is important.
