eglibc/2.13-34 has been uploaded in time for going to testing [1] and
got an freeze exception. However it is blocked due to 'block-udeb'. As
this version doesn't change anything wrt debian-installer, would it be
possible to get it unblocked?

Then it would be possible to upload a fix for RC bug #681113 (already
committed by Petr in SVN) and for security issues from bug#681473 (once 
I have time to look at it), otherwise it means the upload has to go
through t-p-u.

 Description: Transitional package to ensure multiarch compatibility

Does this change (which doesn't appear to be mentioned in the changelog,
btw) have any practical impact?

It appears in the changelog as:
   * control.in/main: switch multiarch-support to priority: required.
Closes:
     #677624.

You're (obviously) absolutely correct. I somehow failed to see that, despite reading straight past it multiple times *sigh*

It has been done to conform to the policy, as all multiarch packages
(pre-)depends on it, some of them being of priority required. Actually this is probably an RC bug (policy violation). The only practical impact I see is that the package is downloaded by debootstrap directly instead
of being downloaded as a dependency of other packages.

It's a policy violation that's not always applied much. Thanks for the explanation.

+ * patches/arm/unsubmitted-ldconfig-cache-abi.diff: disable, as it will
+    conflict with upstream x32 support.

The earlier discussion on this mentioned regenerating the ldconfig
caches to ensure that mixed armhf / armel systems continued to work as expected. Does that need doing as a result of this change, or once the
updated patch is accepted upstream?

This has to be done once the updated patch is accepted upstream.
Actually it's something already done in the postinst of libc6, though
maybe we'll have to do it slightly earlier.

Okay; thanks.

Unblocked.

Regards,

Adam
