So maybe that is a ct-ng issue which should not allow to select any > version of the linux kernel headers with any version of glibc ? tracking that kind of information is a waste of time imo. the issue you refer to is highly arch specific, so you'd then have to have a matrix correlating three things. and it's certainly probable that you'd start including gcc as well. sounds like matrices on the order of why i didnt pursue a mathematics degree ... google for the glibc error and find a patch -mike
