no, they didn't get lost, I got them both. But in both anouncements glibc is listed as "pending vulnerability". However, at http://www.suse.de/de/private/download/updates/73_i386.html the fixed packages are listed and downloadable with date Oct 1. That's what confused me. Could it be that the glibc is fixed and stable for 7.3 but not for other distributions (like 7.0,..) and that's why the general announcement is not yet sent?
Yes.
Can I download the glibc packages from this website for my 7.3, or should I wait for an glibc announcement on the list?
No, you can use the one that is present there. It is the version that will be announced shortly. And yes, we're still building the packages for the older distributions.
Thanks!
