Of course, this would happen whether we made the change globally (for x86) or if we only did it via profile. The problem with doing it via profile is we *already have* people on 2005.0 and 2005.1 profiles running gcc 3.4, so it means causing a much more disruptive upgrade for all ~x86 users, or anyone who has merged gcc 3.4 explicitly already. --=20 Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering - Strategic Lead x86 Architecture Team Games - Developer Gentoo Linux --=-3rwSQeXmrH+X+k01fvGy Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBDjbHNkT4lNIS36YERAmTLAKC8Z9ntDjVNclVIeeHW/dVb+m6+0ACfXIYw 7cE7pPM3NuXmDBxcvFEDdpI= =sZCe -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-3rwSQeXmrH+X+k01fvGy-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
