glibc-2.14.90-12.999 also breaks the build of ANY C++ code using
fenv.h, which affects at least Qt (but likely also several other
C++ packages, particularly mathematical ones, but not only, as can
be seen from Qt). Thankfully, that showstopper is fixed in -13
which is already in stable by now (because it was aggressively
up-karma'd by the KDE SIG).
The fact that a glibc with showstoppers of this kind got pushed to
stable shows that the karma system does not work at all. It just
hinders getting legitimate fixes out and does nothing to stop
regressions. glibc is even critpath, yet broken crap still goes
out.
Since a few days I've got the problem that lazarus and applications
written with lazarus are running into an exception on closing them.
Originaly I thought that this is a problem of that latest gtk2 update
but could it be that glibc also affects lazarus, even if is pascal?
