Bug 793692 – sys-libs/glibc-2.33 sys-libs/glibc-2.32-r8 stabilization

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Andreas K. Hüttel 2021-06-01 09:55:39 UTC]

Arches please TEST and then stabilize. 

glibc-2.32-r8:
* patchset upgrade 6 => 8
* various minor upstream release branch fixes
  (elf parsing, x86_64, arm64)
* fix for CVE-2021-3326 (JP locale)
* enable nss-systemd in nsswitch.conf by default

glibc-2.33:
* version upgrade, see 
  https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2021-February/122207.html
* fix for CVE-2021-3326 (JP locale) (included upstream)
* enable nss-systemd in nsswitch.conf by default

Bug 769989 is the only remaining issue related to 2.33 in Gentoo bugzilla. The RedHat patch works [1] , Google is not telling why it reverted it in Chromium upstream [2], and there has been no motion at all since Fri, Apr 16, 2021. Accordingly we go ahead.
(Note that bug 769989 only affects Chromium *built* on 2.33, not Chromium built on older glibc and running on 2.33.)
