Outstanding concerns ==================== - no entry TODO ==== * General: - Make sure that prep.sh and version aren't in the root of the source package. * libc: - Only add some libraries to the optimized packages and to /lib/tls, instead of all of them? - Add patch to display (or ignore) linux-gate.so.1 in ldd. - Check dpkg-shlibdeps for linux-gate.so.1 handling. - Don't do make install for libc6-i686 if we aren't going to use the results - it's very slow. We may need to make install for nptl to get the few headers that differ. - Fix /usr/sbin/tzconfig to take a parameter. Right now we set the links by hand in libc.postinst in the noninteractive case, but it would be better if the tool could just do everything for us. - Add alpha EV67 opt package support (#229251). * libc-dev: - What do we do for headers on 32/64 systems? Do we generate #if wrappers for /usr/include? This looks like a non-issue since only asm needs it. - -dev support for library variants like nptl? 64-bit libraries are covered. * locales: - locales debconf template is a bit difficult for newbie users. Using localedata/locales/*, it can be readable. For example, "ja_JP" -> "Japanese", "Japan".
