  • Update Debian Ports installation images 2021-04-14

    From John Paul Adrian Glaubitz@21:1/5 to All on Wed Apr 14 23:10:02 2021
    Hello!

    I just uploaded updated Debian Ports installation images that were
    created today and ship with the latest Debian unstable kernel (5.10)
    and all other packages updated to their latest version in Debian
    unstable.

    If you test these images, please let me know if you run into any issues.

    Bug 27750 - local variables have wrong address and values on sparc64
    https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27750

    Otherwise the basics all seem fine.

    Thanks for reporting this. gdb has also has the issue that one of the tests
    of the testsuite kills the whole machine [1].

    I have done some testing with an old Netra server and everything seems
    fine with the exception of gdb which is broken. Seems to be fixed for

    Seems that we have a new release :

    https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb/2021-April/049400.html

    So maybe it even works.
