The update was then edited to include -11, which supposedly 'fixes' the issue (though according to Tom it doesn't, really). Neither -10 nor -11 has made it to f15 stable. This is all right there on that page. > What was the justification for pushing an updated glibc post-beta?

Critpath updates have to be approved - by the usual standard of +1 from a proven tester and +1 from any tester - at all stages after branching. This does not change after beta. Neither -10 nor -11 met this standard, so neither has been pushed to stable. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
