Subject: [gentoo-user] downgrading glibc
Date: Fri, 18 Aug 2017 06:56:54
Message-Id: 1503039652.28098.13.camel@st.com
1 I hava a build problem upgrading Mythtv to 0.28.1-r1 [1] on an ~amd64
2 system. The problem is related to a glibc API change [2] introduced in
3 glibc-2.24 and still present in glibc-2.25. So I'm thinking to try the
4 build with an older glibc version.

6 Downgrading the system to glibc to 2.23-r3 means trouble?
7 If not, an emerge @preserved-rebuild after the downgrade will be
8 sufficient to not break the rest of the system?
9 I suppose a quickpkg of the whole world before the downgrade would be a
10 good idea, just in case...

12 thanks,
