Hi,
I've got a intrepid chroot which doesn't work on RedHat based systems.
Since RH kernels with thttpd support use the 02000000 flag for their own
purpose, intrepid's glibc O_CLOEXEC flag doesn't work and so getting
owner and group info for files/dirs fails sometimes.
Now, I've built vanilla glibc with the O_CLOEXEC flag set to 0 and now
the problem is solved. I understand that removing O_CLOEXEC isn't a nice
idea, but it's ok for my demo purposes.
I ran "apt-get source glibc" and the following files are there in the
current dir:
> glibc_2.8~20080505-0ubuntu9.diff.gz glibc_2.8~20080505-0ubuntu9.dsc
> glibc_2.8~20080505.orig.tar.gz
The question is, how do I build glibc sources with my patch using the
"debuild" command?
cheers,
skar.
