* Jan Pazdziora:
it seems that both fakeroot and fakechroot fail to build in Fedora
rawhide (at least partially) because _STAT_VER is no longer declared
in the current glibc (or rather, its headers):
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1889862
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1901049
The bugzillas are filed against their respective components but
I wonder if we have any guidance from the glibc point of view about
how these components should proceed. Or is the loss of _STAT_VER an
omission and will it come back?
_STAT_VER will not come back, these packages have to define the value
locally. glibc won't add any _STAT_VER values.
There's a Fedora-specific hack in rawhide glibc to bring back the
__xstat and related symbols for linking. This in the process of being
upstreamed.
Thanks,
Florian
