We should avoid creating recipes for every minor release. As we see minor release only contain bug fixes. agreed. If you dont care about linaro thats fine. Would you prefer a gcc which is widely used or just used by you hence supported only by you. My point it more common we use better we have the support for it and community as a whole gets benefitted. If linaro patches dont harm your case negatively would you still be averse to them ? Do you have some cases where they created regressions compile time or run time or degraded the performance ? that will be interesting. why do you think gcc-4.5.2 will be more stable then say gcc-4.5.2 + patches from upstream 4.5 branch What advantage do you see of having a vanilla gcc without linaro patches ? > Regards, > Andreas > > _______________________________________________ > Openembedded-devel mailing list > Openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org > http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel > _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list Openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
