Maybe this is a good excuse to get Gwenole's new glibc in (that fixes commercial apps). I can't see a reason that'd break anything.
glibc-utils broken dependency is not a release critical bug per se, as if the user selects it at install time, there is no problem at all.
However, concerning the brokeness of *some* commercial apps, the fix has to go to those commercial apps. There is a workaround in glibc 2.3.1-11mdk, but hey, that's a workaround.
<http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~gbeauchesne/glibc/>, for testing.
Bye, Gwenole.
