Comment (by jdemeyer):
Replying to [comment:5 jpflori]:
> I did not check when the `install` script is run, but if it is run at
some point after `GCC` installation without `SAGE_INSTALL_GCC=yes`, `GCC`
will never get updated if one of its dependencies is or if a new version
is merged unless `SAGE_INSTALL_GCC=yes` and `install` get run once again?
Am I wrong?
You are right, but perhaps that isn't a problem. I don't think we need to
treat GCC like other packages. If users have GCC 4.9.1 instead of 4.9.2,
that's no problem. And if it would be a problem, we just blacklist GCC
version 4.9.1 (for all setups, including system GCC 4.9.1).
