Hi all, I'm pleased to announce that the pkgsrc-2015Q4 binary package sets for illumos are now available, with over 14,800 packages available. This is a new LTS release, and will receive security and important fixes for the next 3 years.
As always you can install them using the instructions here: https://pkgsrc.joyent.com/install-on-illumos/ SmartOS users can use the 15.4.0 image sets which will be available within the next few days. Major changes in this quarterly release are: * Many package additions, including PHP 7.0 and Python 3.5. * The default compiler is now GCC 4.9.3. All of our GCC 4.7 patches have been ported forward, including multiarch support, disabling of -fomit-frame-pointer, support for -fstrict-calling-conventions, TLS emulation fixes, and the disabling of fixincludes. * clang-3.7.0 is provided as an alternative compiler, with patches to fix the default illumos environment, allowing over 12,000 packages to build from pkgsrc using clang. * All packages are now built with "-gdwarf-2" and the core bootstrap packages are no longer stripped, ensuring software can be debugged correctly.
