ok, i'll update the whole source... but you didn't you mean rebuilding
everything, right? i just need to patch the system against the realpath
vulnerability; so do you think it will be possible to update only
lib/libc (and recompiling dependant binaries)?
i don't want to update the whole system by rebuilding it because:
1) i don't have enough time for that now :o(
2) i don't have almost any experience with it
2) i plan to update 1.6 to 1.6.2 as it will be released
