Re: Increasing minimum 'i386' processor

I think it is time to increase the minimum requirement to 586-class, if not for wheezy then immediately after. (Later it should be increased further, and eventually i386 should be reduced to a partial architecture that may be installed on amd64 systems.) This would allow the use of optimisations and new instructions throughout userland that improve performance for the vast majority of users. It seems gcc has been targetting i586 instruction set by default since gcc 4.4.0-1~exp1, although the triplet was not changed to match. On the discussion regarding multiarch tuples I proposed we should switch the triplet back to i386-linux-gnu to avoid this kind of confusion, fix the internal inconsistency and the one with other architectures (which do not track the base instruction set in the triplet) and so that we can use them directly as the multiarch tuples. For more details please see: http://lists.debian.org/debian-dpkg/2011/02/msg00061.html http://lists.debian.org/debian-dpkg/2011/02/msg00039.html regards, guillem While I agree that the triplet should be unique for all the reasons stated in the two mails I have to disagree with your conclusion to change the gcc triplet to i386-linux-gnu. A gcc compiling for i486-linux-gnu, i585-linux-gnu or even i686-linux-gnu is not compiling for the i386-linux-gnu ABI. You would be making the same mistake that arm does on i*86 too, making the triplet not unique. You could have a normal gcc and a i386-linux-gnu-gcc on your system.

I agree, it's time to weight the costs and benefits of supporting obsolete hardware at the expense of most users.

They're not automatic, the package *is* failing to build, and that issue should be documented. We monitor the buildds and are aware of FTBFS, so these bugs are not useful for us and only take away some of our precious time for triaging. Thanks. Failures of other packages to build can't be blocked against oh, the maintainers will know about it. Nor is anyone triaging said failures going to automatically be aware that you know about the issue, what progress (if any) has made towards resolving it, whether it's an issue with GC{C,J} itself or a kernel or glibc issue, ... In this particular case, it appears that the bug is actually in gcc and that the gnat failure is a side-effect? In that case, the bug should be marked as affecting the gnat package, so it shows up in gnat's bug list. I see Julien already added the affects, but if that had been done when the bug was reassigned then it would have been visible in gnat-4.6's bug list before a duplicate was filed and I suspect at least some of the animosity in this exchange could have been avoided. They may not be useful to you bug they're useful to everyone else. Why are you downgrading this bug? It's a buildd issue, which somebody needs to investigate. The log of #637236, which Julien's report got merged with, implies that someone *is* and has been investigating. As a general note, marking what are otherwise RC bugs as important so that the package can migrate isn't really appropriate, at least not without discussion with the release team (at which point we can e.g. tell britney to ignore the problems for a particular version). The all port lights on green attitude by the release team (not only for kfreebsd) doesn't help with this either. If you have specific concerns about the viability of specific ports, then raise them appropriately (and preferably in a constructive manner). Making snide remarks and then complaining that nobody's listening to the issues isn't helpful.
