Bug ID: 391828
Summary: Include GCC-7/G++-7 in Developer Edition
Product: neon
Version: unspecified
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Packages Dev Edition [unstable]
Assignee: neon-b...@kde.org
Reporter: bund...@gmail.com
CC: j...@jriddell.org, neon-b...@kde.org, sit...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
Please consider including GCC-7/G++-7 in the neon Developer Edition, since it's
what the KDE apps are being built with. Even though it's not officially
packaged for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, it can be downloaded and successfully used from
the following PPA:
https://launchpad.net/~jonathonf/+archive/ubuntu/gcc-7.3
It doesn't necessarily need to be set as the default, but having it loaded
would be handy. Otherwise, we're using GCC/G++ 5.4.0, from 2016. These will
compile the KDE apps fine, but won't generate the same compiler warnings as
Jenkins (or the senior developers we newcomers are trying to assist).
It's a wishlist item. I've already got my compilers upgraded. Just putting the
idea out there for consideration.
