preparing for GCC 9
Hi,
stage3 is approaching for GCC 9 development, and I put together a first gcc-9
package. I won't upload that to experimental yet because sonames and package
names will still change, and gcc-for-host will add a few hundred binary packages
as well. So please test/check these in an Ubuntu cosmic chroot. Found at
https://launchpad.net/~doko/+archive/ubuntu/toolchain/
Some things which need some work:
- Ada is currently disabled. Some patches need updates, I didn't
spend time on these. Also please forward patches which can be
applied upstream. Syq, Nicolas, any update would be appreciated.
- gdc is disabled, will be finally merged upstream. I'll re-enable
that in a follow-up snapshot.
- Building of the cross compiler packages is not yet started.
- The gcc-for-host patches should be updated. With the freeze
approaching, I don't want to integrate these into 8 anymore.
Helmut, an update would be appreciated.
Finally I gave up converting the VCS history, and started from scratch with new
git VCS repos. Found at https://salsa.debian.org/toolchain-team/
