Description Ryan Hill (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-03-16 20:54:56 UTC 
This is the tracker for GCC 4.8.  Do NOT report bugs here.

- create a NEW bug assigned to the maintainer of the package in question (ie. NOT gcc-porting@gentoo.org)
- Don't use this bug for issues in GCC 4.8 itself.  File a new bug and assign
it to the toolchain team.
 - Please keep this tracker free from comments.  Discussion should take place
on the relevant bugs.
Comment 1 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-04-02 00:40:21 UTC 
Please stop filing bugs encountered when using gcc 4.8 ebuilds from overlays, other than the toolchain overlay.  We obviously don't support these versions.
Comment 2 Mike Lothian 2013-04-06 01:37:47 UTC 
Ryan this is probably a silly question but where is the gcc-4.8 ebuild in the toolchain overlay? It seems there's an alpha from last year and a live one of 4.8.1
Comment 3 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-04-06 20:34:10 UTC 
4.8.0 is in the tree now.
Comment 4 Mike Lothian 2013-04-09 17:43:40 UTC 
Ryan I've tried removing and readding the toolchain overlay but I'm still not seeing gcc-4.8
Comment 5 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-04-10 00:05:01 UTC 
It's in the gentoo tree, not an overlay.

$ equery which gcc:4.8
/usr/portage/sys-devel/gcc/gcc-4.8.0.ebuild
Comment 6 ewomer 2013-05-31 16:51:02 UTC 
gcc-4.8.1 has just been released today.
Comment 7 wbrana 2013-08-13 21:16:17 UTC 
I think GCC 4.8 shouldn't be unmasked as there are many wrong code bugs in GCC's bugzilla
Comment 8 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-10-07 05:45:25 UTC 
4.8 is now unmasked.  Please continue to add any porting bugs you encounter to this tracker so we have an accurate list of packages for stabilization.
Comment 9 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2015-09-29 18:26:32 UTC 
4.8.x is in stable.  not a lot left to do here.
