Source RPM size
by Florian Weimer
Would it concern you if the source RPM size grew to about 110 MiB?
This data would not have to be uploaded with a “fedpkg new-sources”
command for every upstream import, only once per Fedora release cycle.

Switching Fedora ppc64 glibc to IFUNC-only optimizations
by Florian Weimer
I would like to tweak glibc so that it only builds one POWER 620/970
libc for ppc64, and not multiple libcs with POWER6/POWER7/POWER8
optimizations.
This does not affect ppc64le in any way.
The reason for this change is that the ppc64 builders are awfully slow
as of late, and the multiple builds (four times currently) currently
make ppc64 the slowest architecture to build by quite a margin.
Any comments?
Thanks,

Status of Fedora 27 glibc
by Florian Weimer
We have received guidance (from Fesco, I believe) that we should not
attempt to push any non-approved changes into Fedora 27. We have one
pending update with a minimal ld.so fix which was accepted as a freeze
exception:
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/glibc-2.26-16.fc27
I think the best course of action for us is to avoid any updates to the
f27 branch in dist-git for now, until the Fedora 27 release. After the
release, we should immediately drop glibc-rh1506802.patch, sync with the
upstream release branch (which includes this patch), and pick up the
glob64 API fix we are currently missing.
Thanks,
