Has anyone else seen this? It's only on my 64-bit box so far. I postponed an upgrade a few days ago because of some other bugs, so I'm putting this on hold for now so I can do the rest of the upgrade.
Code: Select all
critical bugs of libc6 (2.17-93 → 2.17-96) <Outstanding>
#730336 - normal booting fails with floating point exception
(edit) No one has responded to the opened bug yet, so it might be nothing. My upgrade (with this package held) was successful.

Interesting. And I already have the newer package installed but did not reboot yet. What is a floating point exception?

^ Generally caused by a divide by zero.

I took the package off hold and upgraded, then rebooted successfully. The bug is still open, but no one seems to be responding to it. I'm closing this topic.
