Which bits? AFAIK, Fedora does not allow cross-compiling for official Fedora packages. josh -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org

Do the cross-gcc packages also need moving to GCC6 immediately as I believe they're used to compile some bits too?

They're used to build some firmware blobs for QEMU/KVM, eg seabios because we need to build x86 seabios code on ppc/arm/etc hosts for example.

Changes in F24 schedule - two weeks slip
Hi Fedora people, let me inform you about changes in Fedora 24 schedule. There is a will to accommodate GCC6 compiler in F24 and use it to compile all the binaries delivered in this release [1]. To make this happen we need to do mass rebuild which was not originally scheduled for this release. On FESCo meeting the last Friday has been decided to go on with GCC6 and do the mass rebuild. This causes slip of F24 schedule for 2 weeks. Please check the updated schedule at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/24/Schedule#Key_Milestones . Dates for the most important milestones follows: 2016-03-15 Alpha Release 2016-04-26 Beta Release 2016-05-31 Fedora 24 Final Release (GA) Regards, Jan [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/GCC6 [2] https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/1519 -- Jan Kuřík Platform & Fedora Program Manager Red Hat Czech s.r.o., Purkynova 99/71, 612 45 Brno, Czech Republic -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
