As fpc seems utterly broke, i'm trying for two days now to have a working gpc package in mandrake. Howerver, it's a gcc family members, and is *not* (according to its maintainers) compatible with 2.96 :-(
Proposed solutions are: 1) add a gpc subpackage to current gcc 2.96 package But: - it is not established it will work - it needs some patching to gcc, which secondary effect are unknown - modifying a core package just before freeze is a bad idea :-) 2) add a gpc subpackage to current gcc2.95 package But: - this package is only used for ppc - again, modifying a core package just before freeze is a bad idea :-) 3) try to build a distinct gcc package, incorporating only gcc runtimes libs needed But: - if will be conflicting with gcc2.95 I tried 3, i have a working gpc package. Should i commit it to contrib now ? Opinion welcomed, as i'm getting a bit lost in gcc arcanes... Guys, i tought XFree spec was the most complex one, but i'm still puzzled by the gcc one :-) -- Guillaume Rousse <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> GPG key http://lis.snv.jussieu.fr/~rousse/gpgkey.html
