This might be due to #740068 (newer glibc version in testing now). I've pinged a glibc maintainer on IRC to see whether that's indeed still expected with the current state of affairs, so as to decide whether to release a new alpha soonish. No need for you to file a bug for this, but thanks for mentioning it. KiBi. signature.asc Description: Digital signature --- End Message ---
