I think it is better to > use the newer version of glibc that to port the patch to glibc-2.6.1 It takes quite a bit to validate a toolchain (gcc/binutils/libc) before it is pushed as default preference. Dont use sword to kill a fly. You could very well backport the one patch and keep using 2.6.1 if you want to upgrade make sure that its stable enough and tested enough on some common architecuture/machines but as eglibc is default libc for micro I wouldnt worry too much for glibc as it might not hit all users of micro. > > > > > >_______________________________________________ > >Openembedded-devel mailing list > >Openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org > >http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel > > > -- > Guo Hongruan, Embedded Linux Consultant > Skype: camelguo > Twitter: camelguo > http://www.gulessoft.com > > _______________________________________________ > Openembedded-devel mailing list > Openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org > http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
