My intention is to continue the gcc-3.4 archive until Debian officially switches to gcc-4.0 as its default compiler. However, this may take quite a long time and I think that to avoid confusion the following should be done: 1. The 'gcc-3.4' archive should be renamed to 'gcc4' to reflect its current state. 2. The documentation for the amd64 port should mark the 'gcc4' archive as an experimental archive. 3. The documentation should clearly state that the 'pure64' archive is the 'official' one for the amd64 port which will be integrated into the Debian archive after sarge is released. Hopefully, the name change from 'gcc-3.4' to 'gcc4' will not cause too much trouble for mirrors and current users. For some time the old name 'gcc-3.4' should be still available as a symlink to 'gcc4'. Regards Andreas Jochens -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
