Hi all,

Signoffs are needed for the toolchain gcc-4.4.0 rebuild.  This involves the following packages

gcc{,-libs}-4.4.0-1 glibc-2.9-7 bintuils-2.9-7 kernel-headers-2.6.29.1-1

and two new deps for gcc:

ppl-0.10.2-2 cloog-ppl-0.15.3-1

I was going to wait until glibc-2.10 arrived at the end of the week to give people time to find fixes for gcc-4.4 issues but there are issues with C++ programs compiled with gcc-4.4 running against (or to be more precise, not running with) the gcc-4.3 libs.  So not moving the toolchain would probably block KDE from moving from [testing]. Also, Fedora has done their rebuild using gcc-4.4 for F11 so patches should be available for any problems encountered.

Urgh.

Please until I've built all OpenOffice packages for the new release. They would require massive patching that is not included so far in go-oo and the vanilla one. It would take me dozens of hours to start build and wait for breakers one by one :S

Sure, give me a ping when you are done.

...

So please wait a few more days. I hope to build and upload final 3.1.0 packages within the next 2 or 3 days.

Oh, and shouldn't we rebuild kernel and all modules? Afair we did so with gcc4.3.

We should probably wait until glibc-2.10 is released (probably on Friday) and use that toolchain rebuild.

Although if the kernel is using or linking to glibc, we have a problem. Or we are doing something revolutionary. :) I would say wait until 2.6.29.3 comes out and just do the rebuild then (of the kernel and modules). -Dan

-Dan Nvidia still works here fine, but it's only the module which was built with gcc 4.4.0. With next kernel version i can rebuild everything if you like me to do that.

Thought I'd just chime in and say I've had no problems so far with 4.4.0, so things are looking good to me. -Dan
