Description Mark McLoughlin 2009-12-07 10:16:50 UTC
bug #516549 was a Fedora 12 data corrupter blocker which we fixed by disabling preadv()/pwritev() support with this patch:

  http://repo.or.cz/w/qemu-kvm/fedora.git/commitdiff/ef41d27fae

bug #533063 is where the underlying issue with glibc headers was fixed

We want preadv()/pwritev() for performance, so we should check that the required glibc version is in the F-12 and F-13 build roots, remove the patch and rebuild

I don't think we need a runtime Requires for this - so long as we build against the right headers, we should be fine

Comment 1 Kevin Kofler 2009-12-17 07:34:54 UTC
Was this forgotten? The glibc fix should be everywhere now (it even made it into F11).

Comment 2 Justin M. Forbes 2009-12-17 14:02:11 UTC
Not forgotten, but not worth a rebuild on its own either. It will be going in with a couple of other fixes in the next week.
