Note the patch was reversed. I applied the patch by hand to f18 & rawhide. glibc-2.16-14.fc18 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 18. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/glibc-2.16-14.fc18 glibc-2.16-15.fc18 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 18. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/glibc-2.16-15.fc18 glibc-2.16-15.fc18 has been pushed to the Fedora 18 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
Created attachment 609689 [details] patch glibc spec for ppc64p7 RPM (as of 4.9.1.3-6.fc17) now honors a %{power64} macro that leads to additional subarchitectures (ppc64p7 -- optimized arch for POWER7) coming in F18. The glibc spec has to be altered slightly to take advantage of this. Namely, many (but not all) of the ifarch ppc64s use the %{power64} macro. I also included two additional changes. 1) add --with-cpu=power7 to configure when the ppc64p7 arch is detected. 2) for %{power64} archs, manually set the target to ppc64-redhat-linux A patch will be provided.
