[arch-dev-public] why's gcc4.6 now in extra?
I've seen the commit msg that FF would require it. We have a rule to ask on our dev ML to ask for pkg additions. Here you would probably have received a -1 because FF must be broken if it would not compile/run with our recent gcc. So what's going on here? -Andy

I prefer to have a good working webgl backend in our firefox. I found it funny that you opened this discussion since you are the one that reported the bug. - -- Ionu? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJP0d6KAAoJEOjxi6FhUTe8/9MH/1cPKP2zFk6ODJH3GAEkTQYL 9b8ijMR+cQgfdVRzt4mIgiZgqQxZnOF1jdwdCFpeJXA1KmK6ruqzeU/9LWdYKo61 50a1Imyga+yh97ZkqqbxCJKZSvTycMD9agCkq34CwYfhPx3KBhUk9dPXZSQOToMd pvHRAx5ZjbVF2v7SNzNpP9yILKZ/hiq3+zZjr64J/F0Ku42F3e6p3I6eZIkxvu9n YY2AvHwVBJq/CzNpWq6AujPyzAsyQ7M3xH/Q+34y0LRx615Uzre/NJr2CaBMXGxI Vi2DXo3S+Qoso4jrLOciuNiV2XKj9+bc37ICqkg+Z9D+GJo4tISRWjOxuVEKDOE= =lgM0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

It's polite to give people a heads up. Regardless, why do we need gcc4.6 in [extra] if it's only a makedepends of one package, and -I believe- a temporary one at that? Cheers. -- Gaetan

I do agree that it was nice to have a heads up. I hope that is a temporally fix. Jan is tracking this bug since I do not want to deal yet with another gcc bug and upstream blaming each other without any concrete solution. -- Ionuț

That sure is much more fun downstream. :D -- Gaetan
