On the downloads page of firebird there is an "important message" notice, as below. However I cannot find this error raised in Firebird Tracker.
Does anyone know which issue it is or is it bogus?
Kind Regards,
Robert.
Note affecting all Linux Classic/Superclassic builds
It has been found that V.2.5 Classic for Linux has problems with AST delivery if used with glibc 2.5. With glibc 2.7 it works properly. The situation with glibc 2.6 is unknown for now.
If your glibc version is lower than v.2.7, it must be upgraded before using Firebird 2.5 Classic/Superclassic.
