hey all...just a fyi that I'm digging through build logs and any that fail due to optimization are getting bug reports as they do not build from source. The main reason I'm spouting this here is that if any of you are manually building packages and are working around these bugs without filing a bug report should stop and start filing bug reports with a severity of serious. Since we are close to freeze and release we must be concerned that a user who installs woody can easily do a apt-get source package and build it without having to go hack on g++ or do anything except debian/rules binary.
so...if you find packages that do not built from source becuase they need to be built with -O0 -mieee then make sure a bug report has been filed telling the maintainer what is wrong ...I'll tag below what my reports say... and set the severity to Serious (the package *must* build from source on all released arch's without anything fancy). Thanks, Ivan ----- g++ apps need to be build with no optimization on alpha due to some problems with the compiler. It is best to pass -O0 -mieee off to CXXFLAGS at build time for alpha builds otherwise you'll end up with build problems like this. -- ---------------- Ivan E.
