Sorry I've been a bit inactive of late, but I had a few cycles last
week, so I fixed up the eselect-compiler ebuild to better handle the
transition from gcc-config and updated toolchain.eclass to update all
toolchains for the profile (ie it'll update both the x86_64 and i686
compiler when a new version of gcc is emerged). I'd like to remove
it from package.mask sometime soon, but I'd like to make sure these
changes fix up all those kinks. I've tested it out a bit on my amd64
and x86 profiles, but I'd like to get more feedback. So if anyone
still using gcc-config wouldn't mind testing it out, it'd be
appreciated. All you need to do is add the following to /etc/portage/
package.unmask:
app-admin/eselect-conmpiler
then emerge eselect-compiler and unmerge gcc-config. If you need
backwards compatibility, you can also add the following to
package.unmask:
sys-devel/gcc-config
then just update gcc-config instead of unmerging it. This just gives
you a wrapper which takes the same syntax as the older gcc-configs
and makes the appropriate call to eselect-compiler.
Please report any bugs you find in bugzilla and assign them directly
to me ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). After I'm sure this is working good
for us on amd64, I'll ask for more preople on gentoo-dev to test it
out before finally unmasking it.
Thanks,
Jeremy
