What is the current lowest version? C++11 requires gcc 4.9, strictly, but 4.8 is often enough. Is this "4.9 worked before and will still work", or something else. In general, it's harder for people to upgrade compilers than other things, partly because C++ in practice more or less requires building everything that ends up in a binary with the same version, which means only having one. Personally, as long as gcc7 is ok, it won't bother me. _______________________________________________ geos-devel mailing list geos-devel@lists.osgeo.org https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/geos-devel
