-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2010-6822 2010-04-20 12:38:52 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : glibc Product : Fedora 12 Version : 2.11.1 Release : 6 URL : http://sources.redhat.com/glibc/ Summary : The GNU libc libraries Description : The glibc package contains standard libraries which are used by multiple programs on the system. In order to save disk space and memory, as well as to make upgrading easier, common system code is kept in one place and shared between programs. This particular package contains the most important sets of shared libraries: the standard C library and the standard math library. Without these two libraries, a Linux system will not function. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Fix failure in hostname resolution -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Fri Apr 16 2010 Andreas Schwab <[email protected]> - 2.11.1-6 - Fix spurious UNAVAIL status in getaddrinfo (#576667, #581673) * Wed Mar 31 2010 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.11.1-5 - Fix for sparc64 msgrcv from upstream trunk * Wed Mar 17 2010 Andreas Schwab <[email protected]> - 2.11.1-4 - Update from 2.11 branch - regcomp.c: do not ignore memory allocation failure (BZ#11127) - Fix typo in feature selection macro use - Avoid ELF lookup race - Fix a few error cases in *name4_r lookup handling (#573904, BZ#11000) * Tue Mar 9 2010 Dennis Gilmore <[email protected]> - 2.11.1-3 - add patch to fix sparc TLS reloc (BZ#571551). * Wed Feb 10 2010 Dennis Gilmore <[email protected]> - 2.11.1-2 - add sparc locale patch commited upstream to the fedora branch * Mon Dec 14 2009 Andreas Schwab <[email protected]> - 2.11.1-1 - Update to 2.11.1 release. - Locale updates. - Don't reuse RPC XIDs across forks. * Mon Nov 30 2009 Andreas Schwab <[email protected]> - 2.11-4 - Update from 2.11 branch - Fix sync_file_range on ppc/ppc64. - Fix getwc* and putwc* on non-wide streams (BZ#10958). - Avoid warnings in CPU_* macros when using const bitsets (BZ#10918). - Fix ranges with multibyte characters as endpoints. - Handle LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE in duplocale (BZ#10969). - Fix _NC_LOCALE_NAME definition (BZ#10968). - Add missing Linux MADV_* definitions (BZ#10972). - Handle running out of buffer space with IPv6 mapping enabled. - Avoid memset warning in one case (#532492). - Restore locking in free_check (#504963). - Fix infloop in __pthread_disable_asynccancel on x86_64 (#537690). - Prevent unintended file desriptor leak in grantpt (#530558). - Fix startup to security-relevant statically linked binaries (#528631). * Tue Nov 24 2009 Andreas Schwab <[email protected]> - 2.11-3 - Enable multi-arch support for ppc and ppc64 on RHEL-6 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #576667 - name resolving broken by glibc-2.11.1-4 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=576667 [ 2 ] Bug #581673 - update from glibc-2.11.1-1.i686 to glibc-2.11.1-4.i686 breaks getaddrinfo on my dell laptop https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=581673 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
