Description Siddhesh Poyarekar 2021-07-22 17:31:54 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1985048 +++

Description of problem:
malloc hooks and debugging support have been moved from libc.so to a new DSO libc_malloc_debug.so, which can be preloaded to get the functionality back.  The DSO will get installed by default into glibc but it should be in glibc-devel or glibc-utils to allow its removal from the core library.

This doesn't need any special changes at the moment so closing this.

Comment 2 Siddhesh Poyarekar 2021-08-26 02:23:01 UTC
Reopening since we need to backport a spec fix[1] to resolve this.
