Title: uClibc-ng retirement on 2022-01-01
Author: Anthony G. Basile <blueness@gentoo.org>
Posted: 2021-08-18
Revision: 1
News-Item-Format: 2.0
Display-If-Profile: default/linux/uclibc/*
uClibc-ng is mostly abandoned upstream, and since my RFC in Jan 2021,
no one has volunteered to step up maintenance or expressed interest in
the uClibc-ng profiles. With this announcement we last-rite the "uclibc"
profiles, which will be removed on 2022-01-01. For parties interested in
an alternative libc, consider moving to musl, which is supported.
Gentoo continues to wholeheartedly support musl and is focusing its
efforts in that area.
