Bug Description

While trying a small modification to the eglibc source package (in Ubuntu Lucid), I tried using Debian epoch versioning, however this seemed to break the Makefile.

The following modification to the rules file seems to fix it:

Current/Broken:
EGLIBC_VERSION = $(shell echo $(DEB_VERSION) | sed -e 's/-.*//')

Should Be Better:
EGLIBC_VERSION = $(shell echo $(DEB_VERSION) | sed 's/.*://' | sed -e 's/-.*//')

This bug was fixed in the package eglibc - 2.17-0ubuntu1

---------------
eglibc (2.17-0ubuntu1) raring; urgency=low

  * Merge with Debian, bringing in a new upstream and many small fixes:
    - patches/any/cvs-malloc-deadlock.diff: Dropped, merged upstream.
    - patches/ubuntu/lddebug-scopes.diff: Rebase for upstream changes.
    - patches/ubuntu/local-CVE-2012-3406.diff: Rebased against upstream.
    - patches/ubuntu/no-asm-mtune-i686.diff: Fixed in recent binutils.
  * This upstream merge fixes a nasty hang in pulseaudio (LP: #1085342)
  * Bump MIN_KERNEL_SUPPORTED to 2.6.32 on ARM, now that we no longer
    have to support shonky 2.6.31 kernels on imx51 babbage builders.
  * Drop patches/ubuntu/local-disable-nscd-host-caching.diff, as these
    issues were apparently resolved upstream a while ago (LP: #613662)
  * Fix the compiled-in bug URL to point to launchpad.net, not Debian.
