Package: gcc-6
Version: 6.3.0-16
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch upstream
User: [email protected]
Usertags: build-path
Dear Maintainer,
I've been asked to file this bug report so that others working on the
Reproducible Builds project can better track the ongoing issue of
build-path-independent reproducibility in various tools and compilers. I don't
mean to imply to rush this process nor pressure you, this report is only for
informational purposes.
As you know, I've already contacted upstream with a proposed patch:
- https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2017-04/msg00513.html
These (backported to GCC-6) may be browsed as git commits here:
-
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/reproducible/gcc-6.git/log/?h=pu/reproducible_builds
The built packages may be downloaded here:
- https://reproducible.alioth.debian.org/debian/
- https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/index_repositories.html
(overview)
The reproducibility status of dependent packages is being tracked on these
pages:
-
https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/issues/unstable/captures_build_path_issue.html
We're currently waiting to hear back from upstream to see what they think.
However, I don't think the patch is missing any functionality and is unlikely
to negatively affect any other packages.

Version: 6.5.0-2+rm
src:gcc-6 was last released with Debian 9 (stretch)
in June 2017 and was removed from the Debian archive afterwards.
It has been superseded by newer versions.
See https://bugs.debian.org/920171 for details on the removal.
After regular security support for stretch ended in July 2020 and LTS
support ended in July 2022, I'm closing the remaining bug reports now.
In case the bug is still present in recent releases, please reopen and
reassign it.
Andreas
