-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2011-17386 2011-12-23 03:10:16 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : glibc Product : Fedora 16 Version : 2.14.90 Release : 24.fc16.4 URL : http://www.gnu.org/software/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: Reverts 552960 patch which is causing a variety of problems. * Sun Dec 18 2011 Jeff Law <[email protected]> - 2.14.90-24.fc16.3 - Check values from TZ file header (#767696) - Handle EAGAIN from FUTEX_WAIT_REQUEUE_PI (#552960) - Add {dist}.# - Correct return value from pthread_create when stack alloction fails.
