OK, so it's not fatal in this situation anyway: I copied the sources
to /var/spool/sorcery manually and no downloading should occur, nor can
occur, since there is not network yet.

Newer glibc may be an option and I actually tried, but it stumbled over
the same issue of trying to get a kernel.tar.bz2.sign instead of
kernel.tar.sign, this time for a 2.6 one. It may work if I choose a
different set of headers, as I observe current glibc spell having
correct tar.sign, where linux spell goes for tar.xz.sign.

So, if the tar.sign controversy is resolved, everything may work
happily …


Alrighty then,

Thomas
