- 20 April 2004, uClibc 0.9.26 based Debian uwoody
CodePoet Consulting (i.e. Erik) is pleased to announce the immediate
availability of an x86 port of Debian woody compiled with uClibc 0.9.26.
This was originally announced a couple of months ago, but has been updated
a few times since to correct several small problems. If you want an easy
way to start building your own uClibc based applications, this is it. This
even supports building your own packages using 'apt-get', and using
'apt-get' to install already compiled packages from uclibc.org. You can
find Erik's uwoody distribution uwoody distribution here. Assembling
this Debian/uClibc system required a lot of work, so if you
think this is the coolest thing since the invention of water, feel free to
let us know.
- 3 January 2004, uClibc 0.9.26 Released
CodePoet Consulting is sorry to announce there was a pthread bug that
slipped though our extensive testing and was only noticed a few hours after
the previous release. As a result, we are now releasing uClibc 0.9.26
which fixes this bug, and is otherwise identical to the previous release.
This release remains binary compatible with uClibc 0.9.21-25, as long as
you take care to avoid any configuraton changes that will break things.
Please be aware we will break binary compatibilty in the upcoming
0.9.27 release to implement a few necessary changes we have been
postponing. That will hopefully be the last ABI change before we freeze
the ABI for the upcoming 1.0.x stable uClibc series.
As usual, the
Changelog,
detailed changelog,
and source code for this release
are available here.
- 3 January 2004, uClibc 0.9.25 Released
CodePoet Consulting is pleased to announce the immediate availability of
uClibc 0.9.25. This contains many bug fixes and cleanups, and is
recommended for anyone using uClibc. This release remains binary
compatible with uClibc 0.9.21-24 (as long as you take care to avoid any
configuraton changes that will break things). We were planning to break
binary compatibilty in this release, but decided to hold those changes so
we could push out a bugfix release.
Please be aware we will break binary compatibilty in the upcoming
0.9.26 release to implement a few changes we have been postponing. That
will hopefully be the last ABI change before we freeze the ABI for the
upcoming 1.0.x stable uClibc series.

- 19 December 2003, dev systems updated to uClibc 0.9.24
Current uClibc development systems have been posted for
i386,
powerpc,
arm,
mips,
mipsel, and
sh4.
The powerpc dev system mostly works, but there are still some
problems with the shared library loader that have not yet been resolved.
Details on what these are and how to use them can be found in the
FAQ
- 15 December 2003, uClibc 0.9.24 Released
CodePoet Consulting is pleased to announce the immediate availability of
uClibc 0.9.24. This contains various minor updates and fixes for a few
silly configuration problems. Arm users should notice a speed increase
since some arm optimized string functions have been added. And several
bugs have been fixed.
This release continues to be binary compatible with uClibc 0.9.21 to 0.9.23
-- as long as you pick compatible configuration options. The next release
will not be binary compatible. We've been saving up a few needed
changes that will be going into the next release, so while you will not
need to recompile all your applications and libraries just yet, keep in
mind we will have a flag day soon...
