Greetings,
I have setup the dev book for development for the cross-lfs 2.1.0 book.
Major updates will be for the toolchain.
I have tried gcc 4.8 with graphite with latest cloog-isl and it was
causing segfaults in ncurses, readline and vim and some others. Vim
would act weird while editing files cause of it and would eventually
segfault.
I went back to gcc 4.7.3 with graphite with latest cloog-isl and it
was no problem. I do not know if we want to go with gcc 4.8, yet. I do
not know what could be causing issues while using the graphite
optimizations when using them during the build.
Because of changes in automake 1.13, some packages need to be edited
and in cblfs, too. I don't know if we want to wait until devs update
their source to fix the issue or we stick with our current version of
automake.
Latest texinfo has some issues with packages as of now until devs fix
them.
The idea is to not add extra commands to the book which will
eventually be removed later on. I say we concentrate on the toolchain
and update packages which will require a bunch of edits in the book
right now.
Any input?
Since we do provide graphite as part of the toolchain, everyone should
be testing their builds with the graphite options and making sure
everything works:
-floop-block -floop-interchange -floop-strip-mine -fgraphite-identity -
floop-parallelize-all
Sincerely,
William Harrington
