Why have any glibc? GCC et al. work fine compiled against musl (as proven by ex. Alpine only doing musl). Or is it for running on GNU/Linux systems (can't you statically link the build chain?)?

- jprjr_ 1y agoDoes a compiler need to resolve DNS?
- yjftsjthsd-h 1y agoAre you talking about the TCP fallback that musl has also had for 2 years? https://www.openwall.com/lists/musl/2023/05/02/1 https://www.openwall.com/lists/musl/2023/05/02/1 In any event, that makes no sense. Pretend for a moment that glibc has working DNS and musl doesn't have working DNS (not true, but let's pretend). You don't build your compiler chain with working DNS support and then use it to build programs without working DNS.
