Hi,
I'm using cooker (updating everiday) for some months, but I'm subscribed
here only since yesterday.
I've seen that there is a gcc 2.96 in cooker. I'd like to point that the
"gcc guys" says that there won't be a 2.96 stable. Never. 2.96 is a
development-only branch. To emphatise this, afaik there is a 2.97 branch
and the 2.96 is stopped.
Please, don't do what redhat did.
P.D: (I'm sorry I haven't read the whole thread).
P.D.2: Sorry my bad english.
