Please default the gcc-4.8 compiler suite to have the option -mieee turned on on Alpha. This was the default for previous gcc versions and many Debian package sources assume this default. The patch alpha-ieee.diff already exists in the debian/patches directory of gcc-4.8 but is not included on Alpha. Pls. run "quilt refresh" on the patch and update rules.patch with: diff -urp gcc-4.8-4.8.2/debian/rules.patch gcc-4.8-4.8.2-new/debian/rules.patch --- gcc-4.8-4.8.2/debian/rules.patch 2013-12-27 19:48:40.000000000 +1300 +++ gcc-4.8-4.8.2-new/debian/rules.patch 2013-12-27 19:42:07.978614726 +1300 @@ -184,6 +184,7 @@ else endif ifeq ($(DEB_TARGET_ARCH),alpha) + debian_patches += alpha-ieee ifneq ($(GFDL_INVARIANT_FREE),yes) debian_patches += alpha-ieee-doc endif Thanks Michael. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-gcc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
