   Hey Benny!   
      
    BP> gentoo have 2.33 stable, with crypt support,   
      
   Last time we talked about stable it was 2.32 and 2.31 for slackware and I was   
   getting 2.33 to behave itself.   
      
    BP> the 2.34 is still to come with can maybe still have support for crypt ?   
      
    $ file /lib/libcrypt-2.34.so   
    /lib/libcrypt-2.34.so: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1   
   (SYSV), dynamically linked, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, not stripped   
      
   That is fresh from the latest build of a soon to be 'stable' once it becomes   
   official on August 1st or shortly after barring any major glitches.  At the   
   moment I am still using 2.33 as 'stable'.  Also am upgrading to a 5.13.x   
   kernel headers which requires a gcc patch in order to be in sync with   
   glibc-2.34 headers.  It is always something ...   
      
    BP> the crypt part is planned to be external not in glibc any more   
      
   That is news to me.  Also see above for confirmation of libcrypt-2.34.  Also   
   from shadow-4.8.1;   
      
    $ ldd /bin/login   
           linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffcefbca000)   
           libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x00007fa5a33d8000)   
           libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007fa5a3252000)   
           /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fa5a3416000)   
      
   This seems to confirm that it indeed works although I have yet to boot this   
   particular build ... yet.   
      
    BP> hope you know why i use gentoo ?   
      
   I have a good guess.  Keeping up to date is alot of work and anything that   
   helps is usually more than welcome.
