From 24845c4ff614607add813322e275cbc8e51ea93c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yu Watanabe Date: Fri, 28 Feb 2025 23:15:16 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] README: bump supported minimum glibc version to 2.31 The current glibc versions used by major distributions: CentOS 9: 2.34 CentOS 10: 2.39 Fedora 40: 2.39 Fedora 41: 2.40 Fedora 42: 2.41 Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (focal): 2.31 Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (jammy): 2.35 Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (noble): 2.39 Ubuntu 24.10 (oracular): 2.40 Debian 11 (Bullseye, oldstable): 2.31 Debian 12 (Bookworm, stable): 2.36 openSUSE SLE-15-SP6: 2.38 openSUSE Tumbleweed: 2.40 Hence, based on our supporting policy, we can bump the base line to 2.31. This commit does not change anything on our source code. But, will drop many workarounds for supporting older glibc in later commits. --- README | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/README b/README index 5194faae5e8..9b019396c8e 100644 --- a/README +++ b/README @@ -206,7 +206,7 @@ REQUIREMENTS: with audit being enabled.
