Package: gcc-mingw32
Version: 4.4.0-3
Severity: wishlist
The main features provided by new gcc versions with respect to mingw32 target
are:
* dwarf exception handling model - working also when thrown through dll
boundaries
* possibility to link programs with shared versions of libgcc and libstdc++
which makes it possible to make programs/libraries much smaller which is
very important for heavily modularized projects
I couldn't find any rationale for this package being created but I think two
issues may be a possible cause for this:
* current maintainer of mingw32 package is not responding (maybe for some
important reasons) to wishlist bugs about new upstream versions
* this package is created with some ideas that make this package very
different from mingw32
As a potential user of this package I'd like to be able to quickly find out
what configure options are used to build this package (not command line but
what should I expect to be able to do with binaries provided by this package).
Currently I had to download package source to have this knowlege.
Second thing is that I would like to be able to compile programs using this
compiler with both exception handling models (dwarf and sjlj) and with static
and dynamically loaded versions of libgcc and libstc++.
Additionally I think users would expect those releases to be "compatible" with
official releases made by mingw.org people. By this I mean build configuration
of gcc and patches applied in official mingw releases.
I'm really happy that this package has been created because it means that some
work is being done and I hope it is an end of very long periods without any
activity in this area.
When I know what I can expect from this package in the future I will try to
help to improve this package within my limited free time.
Regards
Tomasz Gajewski

Description:
gcc-mingw-w64 - GNU Compiler Collection for MinGW-w64
Closes: 625778 632375 633552 634567
Changes:
gcc-mingw-w64 (1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Include Ada support (Closes: #632375). Build-depend on gcc-4.6-source
4.6.1-5 or later to get the required upstream fixes.
* Stop trying to ship libiberty, upstream no longer supports it
(Closes: #634567).
* Protect intrinsics in C++ code (Closes: #633552).
* Provide shared versions of DLL-compatible libraries (Closes:
#625778). The appropriate DLLs may have to be shipped with the
resulting binaries, unless static build options are used (-static,
-static-libgcc and/or -static-libstdc++).
* Re-organise configure flags and update them as used upstream.
* Switch to single-number versions and add the gcc-mingw-w64 version to
the resulting binary package's version.
* Disable hardening with dpkg-dev >= 1.16.1 for now (until the gcc-4.6
package supports it).
* Correct uses of "informations" in output code.
