Subject: [alpine-devel] gcc-4.7.1 pushed to edge

Hi,

Just a heads up that I have pushed gcc-4.7 to edge.

This should fix the need for the kernel hack:
export GCC_SPECS=/usr/share/gcc/hardenednopie.specs

I have disabled gcc-go for now, since it requires ucontext which we
don't have yet.

Please let me know if anything breaks.

Thanks!

I haven't tried yet, but I've heard reports that gcc 4.7 breaks Xen
4.1.x. This should be fixed in 4.2, which I will import into edge once
released. I would like to be sure that 4.7 doesn't get pushed to main
until 4.1.x is replaced by 4.2.

Regards, Roger.

ugh... ok. I just pushed it...

How far away is xen-4.2? would it be an idea to start building the
xen-4.2.0_rc* in edge? So we are sure they are included - and works - in
alpine v2.5. To be released in november.

This rc will probably be the definitive one, so if you are ok with it I
will package it for Alpine. I will have to pick your Qemu patch ;). Will
try to submit the abuild later today.
