[gentoo-dev] gcc-3.0.2-based system

[gentoo-dev] gcc-3.0.2-based system

[Grant Goodyear]

I'm currently in the middle of "emerge system" with my new gcc-3.0.2-
based system, and so far I haven't encountered any problems.

Here's what I did to bootstrap w/ gcc 3.0.2:

1.  Remove the ">=gcc-3.26" line from package.mask.

2.  Update the gcc and binutils lines in /etc/make.profile/packages:

*>=sys-apps/baselayout-1.6.4
*>=sys-apps/portage-1.6.10
*=sys-devel/binutils-2.11.90.0.7
*=sys-devel/gcc-2.95.3-r5
*=sys-libs/glibc-2.2.4-r2 
>=sys-apps/sysklogd-1.4-r6

3.  Update the gcc and binutils lines in /usr/portage/files/boot*:

>=sys-apps/baselayout-1.6.4
>=sys-apps/portage-1.6.6
=sys-libs/glibc-2.2.4-r2
=sys-devel/binutils-2.11.90.0.7
=sys-devel/gcc-2.95.3-r5
=sys-devel/gettext-0.10.39-r1

(In the future I think this file should just have the names of the packages,
with the versions obtained from /etc/make.profile/packages.  Incidentally,
the bootstrap.sh script parses the file for texinfo, which, of course, 
isn't there.)

4.  Edit the glibc-2.2.4-r2 ebuild to add a "--disable-sanity-checks" option
to configure:

	try ../configure --host=${CHOST} --without-cvs \
		--enable-add-ons=linuxthreads \
		--disable-profile --prefix=/usr \
		--mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info \
		--disable-sanity-checks ${myconf}

If other people would test this, I would be grateful!

Hmmm, gcc 3+ is more standards-compliant.

Ex: 

#include <iostream>

int main() {
	cout << "Hello, World!" << endl;
}

won't compile (cout and endl not found), although it will
with 
	std::cout << "Hello, World!" << std::endl;

I also found that netkit-telnetd-0.17 seems to be broken under 
the latest gcc/glibc.  For some reason the older gcc/glibc
combination managed to find exit(), memcpy(), and various
string functions without <stdlib.h>, <memory.h>, and <string.h>
being included.  The appropriate patch is certainly simple enough!
This could be an adventure. . ..

Let the adventure begin!  This is something we need to do.

AW: [gentoo-dev] gcc-3.0.2-based system

[Sebastian Werner]

Hey,

I have tried some time ago to build gentoo based on gcc-3.0.1 after this
I use a cvs-gcc 7 days before gcc-3.0.2. released. I use glibc-2.2.4. As
you descripe net-telnetd don't work. Some especially c++ programs make
problems:

For example: mysql-3.x, don't know - forgot it.

Also I have problems to use the flash-plugin for linux. I think this
lies on the glibc which wasn't build binary compatible
(--disable-sanity-checks) with previous. 

I have no trouble to build the kde-packages. ;-) They work all, but the
enabled objprelink could not find any optimizations.

Sebastian
