Hi alpha porters! Since the last upload, the Debian glibc packages is using gcc-4.2 on all architectures except alpha (and hurd-i386, but that's now fixed).
Due to the unavailability of a developer accessible alpha machine, we have not been able to test the glibc with gcc-4.2 on this architecture. Therefore it would be nice if one of you could do the test. Here is the procedure: - Install gcc-4.2 and g++-4.2 (should be version 4.2.1-1). - Get the sources of glibc 2.6-3 from unstable - Remove the following lines from debian/sysdeps/alpha.mk # Build with gcc-4.2 is not yet tested CC = gcc-4.1 CXX = g++-4.1 BUILD_CC = gcc-4.1 - Build the package in the normal way - Send us libc6.1_2.6-3_alpha.deb or log-test-alpha-linux-gnu-libc from the build tree Thanks, Aurelien -- .''`.
