Package: libc6 Version: 2.3.2.ds1-22sarge3 Severity: important Tags: patch fixed-upstream
Bob Proulx reports in <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00091.html> that CVS coreutils won't build on an ia64 machine due to an assertion failure in the pwd-long test. This stems from a bug in the implementation of getcwd. In <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00092.html> Andreas Schwab mentions that the glibc bug has been fixed in current CVS; see <http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2418>. The actual patch to sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getcwd.c, as installed, is here. Can you please backport this into Debian stable? Thanks. <http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/libc/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getcwd.c.diff?r1=1.23&r2=1.24&cvsroot=glibc> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
