Yes. I wanted to announce these new packages, but didn't find the time to do it. > And, is the latter one optimized for i686?

Well, that's the same for other libc6-xen etc. packages, so you'll have to check with the glibc packagers. I believe they dropped mentioning i686 just because something like Xen not being able to run on older hardware anyway. > Also, this text says ``will be selected instead when running under Xen'' > -- is this meant to be automatically done? It's supposed to be, we need to add support for it. > If so, then it didn't work. Yes, you need to copy it by hand. Same for libc0.3-i686, we just need to steal the cpuid code from the kfreebsd port of glibc. Samuel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
