[Fink-devel] gcc44 in stable needs

2009-09-05 Thread William G. Scott
Hi folks: I started a clean stable 64-bit for 10.6 for purposes of testing migration of some of my packages to stable. Although gcc44 is in stable, its dependency libmpfr1 is not, so gcc44 won't build in stable. HTH, Bill William G. Scott Contact info:

Dave, Thanks. Since Apple has effectively orphaned FSF gcc, I have spent a lot of time making sure that the current release is patched up to remove false failures in the gcc testsuite so real bugs are exposed. Those changes would all have to be backported to the earlier gcc releases to make

Hi, I learned from the commit messages (see below) that packages in stable using gcc43 cannot be used on x86_64. I have gcc44 version for all of my packages in unstable, but I cannot move them as gcc44 is not yet stable. Any plans to promote gcc44 to stable? Thanks, Remi On Aug

I have no objections to any of the gcc4X packages in unstable being moved to stable. It would be nice if all of them were since they pave the way for installing gcc45 when released. Jack On Tue, Aug 25, 2009 at 03:46:23PM -0400, Alexander Hansen wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED

Let me encourage you guys to wait until I've finished monkeying with stable, with the goal of making sure everything in stable compiles on 10.6 when it is released. That process should be finished by Friday or Saturday, and then we can think about what other things to move to stable.

Dave, I assume you are taking about i386 support only for 10.6 as the gcc44 package is required for x86_64 fink support on either Leopard or SL. Jack On Wed, Aug 26, 2009 at 06:43:57AM +0900, David R. Morrison wrote: Let me encourage you guys to wait until I've finished monkeying

I just noticed that we need to limit gcc42 and gcc43 to build only on 10.4 and 10.5. Only gcc44 and later will contain the necessary checks for darwin10. They may build on darwin10 but will have flawed testsuite results. If you are planning a 10.6 release with either of the those (instead of

Just to clarify this issue with gcc in more detail. While those gcc releases which don't recognize darwin10 could be run on darwin10 as prebuilt binaries, the compiler itself would be miscompiled under darwin10 (so you can't build the package itself but could run a copy built under darwin9).

Thanks, Jack. For the current push to get the stable tree ready for 10.6 before Friday, we'll suppress all of the gcc42 and gcc43 dependent packages from 10.6 under both architectures. There will be plenty of time in coming weeks to fix everything in unstable and then move to stable when
