Why are you bumping the version number of the 4.3.2 packages?  If the sole
reason is to have a known version you can incorporate, then please do this
with the branch version: "4.3.2-1" would be fine.  This is a vendor
packaging change, which is what the branch version should generally be used
for when the release version is otherwise meaningful.

It is the former.  I'll switch it to 4.3.2-1.


You should probably use incorporate dependencies instead of optional ones,
though the likelihood that it'll make any difference (i.e., that you'll
want to publish a new version of the 4.3.2 packages) is next to zero.

I'll make this change as well.


If you're obsoleting 4.3.2 and introducing a replacement, then why not
simply rename the package instead?

Since the new packaging has some overlapping pathnames with the exiting packaging, I wanted to make sure we didn't leave the package database in a weird state. For people who already have 432 installed, I thought it would be best to remove 432 before installing 433. Is this overkill and not really necessary?


Why do you have a "gcc-" prefix on all of the component packages?

Good point since the packages are located under developer/gcc. I will remove the gcc- prefixes.

Thanks,
George
