#2253: GCC-4.3 with 'mktime(3)' ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Owner: [email protected] Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 6.4 Component: Book | Version: SVN Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
Replying to [comment:1 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: > I recommend closing as wontfix. Well I disagree simply because it is a bug. GCC introduced this regression and there's a simple (a few typed characters) fix for it. It may be an upstream problem, but at least we're identifying it and providing a solution. As far as what advantage it is, I can't say. But let me turn your question around Bruce and ask you: What disadvantage is it to use a system function that the packages look for before using an internal copy? Furthermore, the behavior has *changed*, These packages have always used the system copy in the past, so this effectively is changing our build method (as minute as it may be) if we don't provide the 'fix'. And lastly, it causes the package build to 'hang up' for a while before timing out and proceeding. Just my thoughts. -- Ticket URL: <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/ticket/2253#comment:4> LFS Trac <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/> Linux From Scratch: Your Distro, Your Rules. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-book FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
