{section: Perform a Clipped Port}

This log starts with some work for the general system port already having been done by another developer.

{section: Preparation of a new glibc external}

See the {wiki: FullPortLogDebianSixSixtyFourBit Debian 6 full port log} for more details.  Note that for Debian 9, =apt-get source glibc= applied the patches; =debian/rules patch= was probably a no-op.

{subsection: Locate and see how glibc builds}

{verbatim}
apt-get source glibc
cd glibc-2.24
debian/rules patch
cd ..
mv glibc-2.24 glibc-2.24-11
tar -z -c -f glibc-2.24-11.tar.gz glibc-2.24-11
cd glibc-2.24-11
debian/rules build |& tee build.out
{endverbatim}

The build failed.  Needed to do =apt-get build-dep glibc=.  This wanted =makeinfo=, but still failed, unable to find =selinux/selinux.h= a long way into the build.  Since =/usr/include/selinux/selinux.h= existed, I tried
=apt-get install linux-headers-4.9.0-3-all=.

Run =apt-get install texi2html= to get makeinfo.

{subsection: Create the glibc external}

Follow the {wiki: FullPortLogDebianSixSixtyFourBit instructions}.  Note that parrot updates what it serves over HTTP from AFS every ten minutes.

Notes: the build system will warn but not fail if it doesn't find the glibc version it's looking for for standard universe.  This should probably be fixed.

The CMakeLists.txt in question is the one in =externals/bundles/glibc=.
