Hello all,
Before I can begin tagging for GCC 5 (and doing the Xorg Updates
ticket), I have to ask a question. I initially built this system with
the --with-pic option in Binutils 2.25 in Chapter 6, and therefore I
have -fPIC and -DPIC enabled by default by the compiler. I plan on
rebuilding Binutils and GCC without PIC before I begin tagging and
updating packages on this system. Are there any issues that may arise
from this?
As long as you use the commands in the current book, you should be OK.
On a side note, it appears that my SBU value has increased by an
additional 20 seconds with GCC 5. Is that odd? (It could be the fact
that I am watching a movie on another monitor and I have a text
editor and Seamonkey open, but I don't think that it should have that
much of an impact...). I will correct this value before I run through
the Xorg ticket.
Just having SM and an editor open shouldn't take too much CPU time, but I think
the movie may be an issue. IIRC, you have the same processor that I do and my
SBU time didn't change much. My most recent SBU time is 102 seconds in a -j1
jhalfs build. That's the same as I had for 7.7:
