Bug 91222 – gcc should have a USE-flag to pass --enable-objc-gc in configure phase

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description bdonlan 2005-05-02 13:47:44 UTC]

Currently, the GCC ebuilds do not expose a way to enable the GNU Objective C garbage collector. A local USE-flag should be added to pass --enable-objc-gc to gcc's configure script.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. USE='objc-gc' emerge gcc ;)

Removing the dotnet herd CC, we have nothing to do with objective C at all.

Created attachment 72757 [details, diff]
adds objc-gc use flag for gcc

[Comment 3 SpanKY 2005-11-12 20:38:00 UTC]

should be 'use objc && use objc-gc'

[Comment 4 SpanKY 2005-11-12 20:40:52 UTC]

or even better, is_objc
