Package: uclibc
Severity: normal
I would like to ask if you could either disable the locale support in uclibc
or create a second binary package with disabled locale support. Since libuClibc
aims to be a really small glibc replacement, local support is IMHO
counter-productive. The library from 0.9.20-1 had roughly around 250kB, the
one from the current 0.9.26-1 has over 550kB with no real gain. For embedded
system (e.g. initrd images like the one created by mkinitrd-cd), size is the
only real issue.
This patch disables locale support and creates a libuClibc with 275kB from the
current 0.9.26-1 source (already tried, it works perfectly).

Version: 0.9.27-1+rm
The uclibc package has been removed from Debian testing, unstable and
experimental, so I am now closing the bugs that were still opened
against it.
For more information about this package's removal, read
http://bugs.debian.org/438738 . That bug might give the reasons why
this package was removed, and suggestions of possible replacements.
Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.
Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
