You are absolutely right but the real world isn't perfect, unfortunately and while I have done my best to find packages affected by this and force them to use _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64, I'm still occasionally running into packages affected by this bug which is why I'm still patching glibc locally. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug.
