I'm wondering if these major version requirement changes should happen before or after the 20.x change, I'd like the former.In do not want to support gcc 5 in the next major release and think we should remove this before branching. I am still unsure about gcc 7.Some packages in the packages feed do not build with GCC7. gerbera comes to mind (requires GCC8 because of C++17).
Thanks for the information, I do not see this as a problem.The older compiler versions could be used to check if a problem also existed with the older compiler version, but if not everything compiles on the older versions this is fine with me. We switched to GCC 8 in October 2019, so more than a year ago, I do not expect there many regressions which we haven't found yet.
