Until end of Februrary 2009, there was no tarball for glibc releases
|
||||
2.8 and later. This was intentional.
|
||||
|
||||
Then, all of a sudden, tarballs for those releases have appeared at the
|
||||
traditional download place (ftp.gnu.org).
|
||||
|
||||
Some of the glibc people argue that fixes are committed to the maintenance
|
||||
branch, and thus it is the best plac e to retrieve the glibc from.
|
||||
On the other hand, it might be preferable to always generate a toolchain
|
||||
using a known code-base, so the toolchain can be reproducible.
|
||||
|
||||
For version prior to 2.8, tarballs were readily available.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want your toolchain to really be reproducible, say 'Y' here.
|
||||
If you can live with a moving code-base, look at the other choice
|
||||
entries, below.
