Hi Chris,status can be found here - https://hg.openindiana.org/users/xenol/oi-build/file/1dcbf893845c/statusMore or less around 60% of stuff compiles with GCC with minor changes (removing Studio related bits).AdamOn Jan 28, 2013, at 2:20 AM, Christopher Chan <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote:Just curious, is there a list of packages that need massaging to build with gcc?On Monday, January 28, 2013 07:42 AM, Adam S(tevko wrote:Hi guys, I have just few things to say. First of all, this thread was meant to get the code review for my set of patches and not trash talking about which version of GCC should be used. As OpenIndiana doesn't have userland fully buildable by GCC, I see no point in debating which version of GCC should be used. Once everything compiles with the version we currently have (gcc 4.4.4, not the one used for compiling illumos-gate), I will try to work on that as well. For now, the priority is to get rid of studio and have oi-build fully buildable by GCC. Does anyone think differently? Secondly, I would like to ask people to stay out of this thread if it is not directly related to the code review. If you want to discuss other topics, please create new thread on the mailing list. I mean no offense to anyone, but let's stay focused on the code review. Lastly, thanks to people who reviewed stuff. I will work on your comments tomorrow (later today) as I want to move with this stuff forward. Thanks for understanding and cooperation.

It's paleolithic, man.I mean no offense Luca, but you really need to read what I wrote, not what you *think* I wrote: "I agree with Bayard here, the difference between using GCC 4.4.4 and 4.7 is largely academic at this point. For practical purposes, the important thing is to get OI repos to build with *any* relatively recent free compiler (be it GCC or clang)." So I wasn't talking about GCC 3.4.3.The only possible workarounds are build a recent gcc version yourself or use SFEgcc package, but the last option is not a viable alternative if your CPU is not SSE2-capable.SSE2 was introduced in 2001 and almost every CPU sold since 2003 includes them. We're talking 10+ years old CPUs. FFS, could we please move on?So, not every users are able to use that compiler/runtime.We're talking about hardware that is seriously stone-age.The questions that i asked are: 1) Since OI has two default compilers (one for illumos development and one for the rest), are there technical reasons that push back oi devs to upgrade gcc? 2) Would not it be better for all of us release OI with two compilers, one for Illumos development (4.4.4) and one for the rest (latest release)?Where are your webrevs for the new versions of GCC? Seriously people, you need to stop bickering and start contributing. I have no problem with using a newer GCC for userland - whatever, I'm do Illumos development anyway, so this discussion affects me only marginally. I'm just getting tired of the endless stream of armchair experts who will nonetheless sit with their arms folded waiting for somebody else to implement their brilliant ideas.
