The versions in each release don't get updated, that's part of what 
makes it stable.


That and the fact that Debian tries to use a version of the software
that has been out for a while and has proven to be relative free of
bugs.


Well, versions don't get updated, except if you include the backports 
in your sources.list.
Also, are only security fixes updated, or bugs are included? If both or 
those updates are included, I guess that a software which maintains a 
stable release with versions dedicated to fixes could be updated in 
stable.

Am I wrong?



You'll need either to use jessie (that's going to be released in a 
couple of months), or you could build an in house gcc backport (or 
even request one to the backports team: [1])


One can even start using Jessie now if the problems that prevent
releasing Jessie are not problems one runs into.


The OP mentioned that he want to use Debian for a cluster. I doubt 
that, for clusters, one would use a beta version, and Jessie is, 
actually, a beta version.

What I would do if I were you, would be to add Jessie in your 
sources.list, not as a normal repository, but only as a source one 
(src-deb).
So, you would be able to retrieve g++ Jessies's source package, and 
build it on the stable libc6. This will result in a debian package that 
you'll be able to deploy on your cluster.


Now, be careful: you will have to find a way to know when there is an 
update of that package, to not miss security updates. Especially if the 
softwares you write are available through network.

Hi guys,
I am building a platform and I need to compile apache mesos from sources.
The issue is that the guys the require support for specific c++11 features
that in the 4.7 compiler currently supported by debian aren't there. Will
the g++ compiler will be updated?We would like to use debian as the

Stop me if I'm wrong, but: no major updates in a release. GCC 4.9 should
be in Jessie, and is in Sid, but Jessie isn't yet released and Sid is
not a release.

Your hint would be to check the g++ package.

From what I can tell, the testing g++ package is, indeed, g++-4.9,
from https://packages.debian.org/jessie/g++

So, you can expect jessie to ship with g++-4.9 as the default.
