Bug#618273: gambc: Version upgrade request
An update to this ancient bug: Debian is still on version 4.2.8, released in 2008, and is including this antique version with Stretch. Upstream is now on 4.8.8, released in Feb 2017. It looks as though Fedora has version 4.8.8, packaged under the name "gambit-c", with "aarch64" (~ arm64) and "armv7hl" (~ armhf) among its architectures.
Bug#618273: gambc: Version upgrade request
Package: gambc Severity: wishlist The version in debian is 4.2.8 and the current version is 4.6.0. There are a few projects that require higher versions than 4.2.x. Gambit Scheme is also hard to build on computers with lower RAM levels. (took 10 minutes and 6-10% of the RAM on a Sparc server with 8 procs and 16GiB of RAM! ^_^) Just saying that it's not easy/possible to build on my machines. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.37-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gambc depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-11 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib pn libgambc4 none (no description available) pn libgambc4-dev none (no description available) Versions of packages gambc recommends: pn gambc-doc none (no description available) gambc suggests no packages. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
