We are going to have problems soon with anything built with
the gfortran from the gcc4 package in unstable. The libgfortran in
the gcc trunk has forked enough from the ABI of the previous 4.1.x
versions that the gcc developers will be bumping the versioning on
that shared library. It hasn't happened yet but will before gcc 4.2
is released. This will mean that any thing built with the current
gcc 4.2 based snapshot which uses gfortran will break when we upgrade
gcc4 to the actual gcc 4.2 release. I don't see a clean fix to this
other than forcing everyone who uses gcc4 and builds with gfortran to
release new packaging that requires a gcc4 which is the final 4.2.0
release.
It might be a good idea to start making a list of all of those
packages that currently build with gcc4's gfortran so that we can
warn the maintainers to upgrade their packaging when the actual
gcc4 4.2 release occurs. FYI.
