[arch-dev-public] [signoff] gcc 4.3.0 and related toolchain updates
Gcc 4.3.0 has been in testing for a while together with its related toolchain updates (glibc, kernel-headers, binutils). At this moment we've built OpenOffice.org for both architectures and GNOME 2.22 for x86_64 with this compiler without noticable problems. Produced binaries are roughly 5-10% faster than with the old compiler. Tobias and I would like to have this one in core for the new release, as the new kernel and all modules have been built with it also.

signoff from my side for i686 and x86_64 system boots fine and all modules built. greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa@archlinux.org

Looks good for i686- I've built a handful of packages with it, as well as my custom Eee kernel which is working fine. I'll give it a thumbs up for i686. Are we going to do a full core rebuild again? -Dan

We can do this on the road after Core Dump ISO with .25 kernel it is not needed now. greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa@archlinux.org

Moved into core and extra for both architectures.

What about the new version of libtool? Are there any showstoppers which would prevent it from being moved to core? -- Pierre Schmitz Clemens-August-Straße 76 53115 Bonn Telefon 0228 9716608 Mobil 0160 95269831 Jabber pierre@jabber.archlinux.de WWW http://www.archlinux.de
