[gentoo-dev] Binary packages in the tree

Currently we are forcing people to either have gcc-3.3 installed, or
libstdc++-v3 so that old packages that weren't recompiled yet don't break,
and binary packages that need libstdc++.so.5 don't break horribly as well.
I'd like to see this dependency in the gcc ebuilds go away and all of the
binary packages in the tree depend on the libstdc++ version they need.  This
will make things easier in the future so we don't need to force 2 or 3
libstdc++'s on users just so other possible packages may work.

So, everyone that has a binary package in the tree, I would appreciate it if
you could put the sys-libs/libstdc++-v3 depend into your package if
necessary.

Well, you can tell I didn't exactly think about this too much beforehand,
since its been brought to my attention a virtual would probably be best for
this, so we would handle the || ( gcc-3.3.* libstdc++ ) inside of the
virtual.  I'll make one later unless anyone has strong objections to this for
people to use in DEPEND, instead of writing the `or` dep out.

Since gcc-3.4 is the stable version now, the best would be || (
libstdc++ gcc-3.3.* ) .

Feel free to ping me if you're interested in making a new-style virtual.

Okay, I have added the new-style virtual.  If you have a binary application
in the tree that requires libstdc++.so.5, please add a dep in your ebuild on
=virtual/libstdc++-3.3.  Let me know if anything doesn't seem to work right.

Thanks

Does this mean that gcc-3.4 will no longer have libstdc++ as a
dependency? :-D

That is what I hope to accomplish, yes.

Okay, you got my vote for this then.
btw. I think there have been several threads about this from time to
time, would be nice to finally get it done :-)
