Quoting Filip Piechocki <[email protected]>:
I don't understand it. This new compiler is needed to build QtC on Ubuntu
14.04. You said, that you can have whatever editor you want, but cannot use
anything that changes the product. But wait, this new GCC will be used to
build the QtC, not the product. Or maybe Ubuntu 14.04 system image is your
product? Or am I missing something here...

Quoting Filip Piechocki <[email protected]>:
Yes, that would increase your personal effort to get this Creator from 2018
on Ubuntu 14.04 working, but that effort is dwarfed by the effort you spent
on your messages here, so that hardly can be the limiting factor in the
game.

Andre',
This is not about effort or great need. I'm shocked so many people
cannot fathom working in an environment where you are not allowed to
change out the C/C++ compiler willy-nilly. Gospel truth, I completed
what I needed to do on 14.04 for the next weeks. I used Sublime Text 3
like I said I would. Other than when I'm at home working on my own
stuff, over the course of my 30+ years in IT, I do not recall being in
a work environment where I was allowed to change the C/C++ compiler
out at will. Even if it is/was/might be allowed here, changing the
compiler out just to get an editor would be an extreme risk. It could
potentially undo tons of work which has already went into
creating/testing the Debian and ISO construction worlds as well as the
multi-platform deployment testing.
Filip,
Unknown. If that PPA was/is a backport which installs a new compiler
over the top of the existing system compiler, then yeah, the wheels
are off the cart. If that PPA installs off in some obscure corner
where QtCreator wouldn't automagically find it while configuring kits
and projects, __maybe__ it's okay. Assuming nothing got put into a
standard search path where it accidentally got picked up.
Be off-line for a bit. Other team has release going live tomorrow
morning then my stuff starts churning through the system.
