Re: Support for glibc 2.12 in 7.8 RC2

Yes, this is a really annoying issue on RHEL, which includes many supercomputers. Sent from my phone. On Feb 7, 2014 1:35 PM, "Rob Stewart" wrote:

Hi,

The 7.8 RC1 status page [1] states RC1 requires glibc 2.15, and that RC2 will support glibc 2.13 to target Debian 7. CentOS 6 packages glibc 2.12 and this will be the glibc version in the CentOS 6 lifetime.

Is there a possibility of stretching lower bounded support in RC2 down to glibc 2.12? This would allow all CentOS users using any of the 6.* releases to use 7.8, I think.
