Right, so we update it in a separate branch, ‘core-updates’, together with other “core” packages. The branch gets merged roughly once every 6 months, so one needs to be patient (such updates take a non-negligible amount of QA work!). > If you really need it, you may inherit from a existing glibc package, > update to 2.35 and use it.
