Bug#246689: PPC libc6 should be built with TLS and NPTL

2004-04-30 Thread Benjamin Herrenschmidt
Package: libc6 Version: 2.3.2.ds1-12 Severity: normal TLS and NPTL have been available for PPC for a year at least now and other distros are using them without trouble. Only a few libs need updating and it's backward compatible. Why are we stuck to libpthread on PPC ? Especially in unstable
