In preparation for the upload of eglibc-2.15 to precise I would like to ask for 
people running the eglibc-2.15 packages from the ubuntu-toolchain-r/glibc PPA 
for some daily work.  The packages are currently used by some developers on 
amd64, armhf and i386 and should not break your precise installation.  Please 
report issues in Launchpad, with mentioning that the 2.15 packages are used.

Downgrades to 2.13 are possible by re-installing libc6, libc6-dev, libc-bin, 
libc-dev-bin and multiarch-support from precise, as long as no packages are 
installed which are built agains the new glibc).

Thanks, Matthias
