I would recommend that you contact / coordinate with iulius who has
been publishing recent versions of many tools in /opt/cfarm, e.g.,
/opt/cfarm/gcc-latest .  As you mentioned, disk space is limited and
we don't need 20 different developers publishing their own copy of
recent GCC snapshots. I don't know the schedule that iulius publishes
updates.

Thanks, David

It's all relative.  A compiler installation is less than 1GB, typically.
A source tree is many GB.  A build tree is tens of GB.

There already *are* compilers of the latest release installed on many
systems.  There are no daily builds, everyone wants to test with different
options -- and that is a *good* thing.

If you want to make some "generic" (say) weekly build available to everyone,
everywhere, just do so?

Are you looking for something like the gcc-8 branch with
backports or the master branch?

I would offer to maintain an "experimental" series of toolchains
if there is agreement as to their utility. Note that they'd be
static and musl-based as that is the plumbing I have in place
already. Excepting build errors, they'd be available in cross-
and native- forms for all of the Linux-based cfarm systems.

If glibc is required, someone will need to volunteer to help me
with that.

Might there be any interest?

Can't you just build one locally?

[cfarm-users] Looking for the latest GCC for PowerPC

2018-12-05 Thread Jeffrey Walton via cfarm-users
Hi Everyone,

I'm looking for the latest GCC for PowerPC. I think I need something
from this week or last week.

GCC135 has "gcc version 8.2.1 20180813" but I am looking for something
newer. The other PowerPCs seem to be older, like GCC 6.2 or 8.2.0.

Does anyone know where to find the latest GCC?

Jeff
