Debian has gcc-5 in experimental. A fact I'm taking advantage of because I want to get Docker working on my sparc server but gccgo is broken on 4.9.
It was fixed a few months ago in the gcc repository but the bleeding edge gcc repo has a broken libsanitizer on sparc. David Miller made some patches but gcc won't accept them(has to go through upstream) and upstream(llvm) have been ignoring them.
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=59758 https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=59758
So I'll have to disable asan or convince llvm to accept davm's patches and then wait for gcc to merge from upstream.
- AceJohnny2 12y agoI think the parent's comment was about using GCC5 to compile all the distro's packages, not just providing GCC5 for its users. The Fedora article is unclear about what they mean, but the consequences they refer to imply using GCC5 to compile their packages. As far as I know, while your link shows that Debian is getting ready to provide it to its users, they haven't yet formed plans to use it to compile their packages.
