Hi, this bug in the glibc headers: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=747377 can potentially crash almost any program built against it. So far, only git is KNOWN to crash, but other software might be affected in unknown ways. Fedora Release Engineering is rebuilding all the packages in Fedora which were built against the faulty glibc. These glibc builds are affected: * glibc-2.14.90-11, testing only, possibly affected * glibc-2.14.90-12, testing only, possibly affected * glibc-2.14.90-12.999, stable from 2011-10-19 to 20, definitely affected * glibc-2.14.90-13, stable since 2011-10-20, definitely affected These glibc builds are NOT affected: * glibc-2.14.90-14, now pending * glibc-2.14.90-10, stable until 2011-10-19 * everything older than glibc-2.14.90-10 Several RPM Fusion packages are affected by this. In particular, my freetype-freeworld-2.4.6-2.fc16 build had glibc-2.14.90-13 in the buildroot and is definitely affected. But a bunch of other packages has been built recently as well. Another problem is that the fix: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/glibc-2.14.90-14 is still pending, so anything built now against the stable F16 (or right now, even updates-testing) WILL STILL BE BROKEN! Unless we somehow pull the fixed glibc manually into our buildroots. (So please DO NOT start issuing rebuilds right now, it won't help.) Kevin Kofler
