I am thinking about converting the gcc4X packages
into a form that can coexist without reinstallation.
Over the years, I've had a few requests for this.
More importantly, when the new llvm-clang (which
replaces llvm) and dragonegg-gcc packaging enters
unstable, it would be helpful for the gcc4X packages
to co-exist. The dragonegg-gcc package will use
a gcc variant to build the dragonegg.so complier
plugin for a specific gcc4X release and provide
compiler wrappers to automate its use. These will
be of the form de-gcc45, de-g++45, etc. Since the
dragonegg-gcc variants call gcc4X from within its
buried subdirectory, those could exist perfectly
without need of the %p/bin gcc4X symlinks.
What I am considering is to add a gcc4X-bin
split-off to all of the gcc4X packages which
will contain all of the %/bin symlinks currently
provided by the main gcc4X package. However, I
a uncertain as to the best way to manage the
transition. My first inclination is to try...

...as implemented on some test gcc46 packaging (where the <= and >> changes
reflect the
%v-%r for each gcc4X package where they gained the %N-bin splitoff).
Any comments on such a change?
