Bug 418383 – GCC 4.6 stabilization

• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Kacper Kowalik (Xarthisius) (RETIRED) 2012-05-31 15:20:05 UTC]

This bug will be used to track all packages that must be stabilized before
GCC 4.6.

- Please file a NEW bug for each package that needs to be stabilized and have
it BLOCK this one.

- The bug should be assigned to the maintainer of the package.  Please do not CC gcc-porting - we get enough mail on these things.

- DO NOT use this bug for any problems with GCC itself.  Instead, file a
NEW bug describing your issue and it will be assigned by a bug wrangler.

Thanks.

A while back I went through the 4.6 tracker and made a list of broken packages and their first working versions.  I only got about halfway through before I was distracted by something else but it should still help.

+1 
Apart from bug 401561 I don't see any obstacles

[Comment 8 Raymond Jennings 2013-01-07 10:31:19 UTC]

I heard that 4.5 was EOLed upstream.  I don't mind pushing this through.

[Comment 9 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) 2013-01-08 00:20:43 UTC]

Arch ppl, please stabilize gcc-4.6.3.  arm, please note bug #401561.  I don't have arm hardware so we'll need some help with that bug.

I just tested it (and noted results in the bug), I can't replicate the ICE, everything is fine.

Can anyone from the arm arch team test and confirm my results?

@dirtyepic: seems we have a lot of boostrap comparison failures...So, if we want to keep gcc:4.6 stable I think we should filter the flags that produces this error, or at least add an ewarn. What do you think about?

Alternatively, maybe just have it append-flags -fno-omit-frame-pointer which is reported to work.

If you're talking about the pentium3 thing then it's on my todo list.

[Comment 22 jannis 2013-01-14 12:59:24 UTC]

this one might block https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=451920 for arm? hopefully it'll be stable there soon

[Comment 23 jannis 2013-01-18 15:57:31 UTC]

here's one that arm-stabilization might depend on: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=452768

> alpha stable

Actually I've reverted it because i think i didn't test it properly :)

[Comment 31 Raúl Porcel (RETIRED) 2013-08-14 14:35:57 UTC]

After testing it correctly, alpha stable

[Comment 32 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) 2013-10-05 04:18:03 UTC]

See bug #467274.
