Please could you explain the impact of this bug in Xenial *to users*?

Doesn't this also need fixing in Groovy first? What's the status of that please?

The bug is not present in Xenial.

The fix is in groovy-proposed, getting closer and closer to the release pocket.

I could not reproduce the issue without setting LDCONFIG_TRIGGER_DEBUG, but considering that this is a small fix and helps at least in debugging IMO backporting it is the right thing. If you disagree I'm open to dropping it from the SRU.

Reading my own comment it doesn't make sense to me now. I must have confused Xenial and Focal. Sorry!

#5

Hello Balint, or anyone else affected,

Accepted glibc into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/2.31-0ubuntu9.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.
