Dear release team, I would like to get a transition slot for glibc 2.35. It has been available in experimental for one month and does not have any known major issue. It has been built successfully on all release architectures and many ports architectures. A few issues found through the autopkgtest pseudo excuses for experimental have been fixed. The remaining ones are due to britney bugs, broken autopkgtest or packages parts of the transition. As glibc is using symbol versioning, there is no soname change. That said a few packages are using libc internal symbols and have to be rebuilt for this transition. Here is the corresponding ben file: title = "glibc"; is_affected = .depends ~ /libc[0-9.]* \(<</; is_good = .depends ~ /libc[0-9.]* \(<< 2.36\)/; is_bad = .depends ~ /libc[0-9.]* \(<< 2.35\)/; In addition a few new symbols have been added that might prevent a few other packages to migrate to testing until glibc migrates if they pick up the new symbols, however those are really limited in this version and mostly linked to the new math functions introduced for ISO C2x support, so unlikely to be massively used by default. Therefore overall this transition should be way simpler than the glibc 2.34 one. Thanks for considering. Regards, Aurelien
