I agree to that confusion should not be occured especially glibc until upstream thinks it reaches release stability level. OK, we are going to patch 'one by one model' until 2.2.6/2.2.90 would be released with patch state marking you mentioned.No, we are going to stay synced with glibc cvs's 2.2 branch. Check the debian/patches/glibc-cvs.dpatch file. That's going to be synced, in full.
Ugh, I completely misunderstand what you said. I restate our plan: after -13, patches in debian/patches/* include (1) Debian specific (2) only in 2.3 CVS (3) Hurd-i386 improvement (I guess Jeff and hurd-machine are reincarnated :). Such all patches marked why they are in debian/patches. debian/patches/glibc-cvs.dpatch syncs the latest glibc-2-2-branch. We effort to resolve our BTS bugs with sending to upstream CVS, surely. Syncing 2.3 cvs is future work after 2.2.90 is released... Thanks, -- gotom
