  - powerpcspe, no feedback, CCing Roland Stigge.

Now that we have fixed gcc-4.7 and gcc-4.8 on powerpcspe, using gcc-4.8
as default compiler on powerpcspe would fine.

Thanks in advance,

Roland

Hiroyuki Yamamoto is the porter behind ppc64, so please consider that as

  - alpha, no feedback, CCing Michael Cree.

I had hoped to get glibc 2.17 building on Alpha before switching to gcc-4.8, but
that's proving to be a rather difficult nut to crack.  Assuming that there is
nothing in gcc-4.8 that specially depends on the version of glibc in unstable
then please default to gcc-4.8 on Alpha.

Cheers
Michael.

I did check http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.9/criteria.html and apparently ppc64 is a
primary release architecture, so I did make it the default for sid (and will
make 4.9 the default for jessie once uploaded to unstable).

Because I don't have enough skill for maintaining
powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc as no trouble now, I don't know whether
I may remark
or not.
But I will make effort to find occurring troubles and to maintain it
as no trouble within my possible skill.

I also think it reasonable at this moment.

Afaics, the situation didn't change. There is nobody committing to work on the
toolchain for these architectures.  At least for release architectures the
alternative is to drop the port unless somebody wants to maintain the toolchain

 Please resume considering to change using unified version of gcc,
 because FTBFS of many packages occur by e.g. c++11

 ia64, powerpc, s390x, sparc, alpha, powerpcspe, ppc64, sh4.
 
 And using unified version of gcc must bring happiness

 On the other hand, I understand that this changing depends on 
 the correspondence status of gcc porting,
 so I leave decision to you.

This is a decision for the porters.  If there are no active porters, there
shouldn't be a port.

 Unfortunately, building gcc-4.8 source package on sh4 has not succeeded yet,
 so here is a patch which changes gcc-4.8 using on ports except sh4.

Thanks for the note!

I'm actually currently working on gcc-4.8 for powerpcspe. gcc-4.7 and
gcc-4.8 on powerpcspe build well, except they both don't have
--with-long-double-128 activated currently (in contrast to the current
default gcc-4.6 and on powerpc).

--with-long-double-128 can be activated on gcc-4.7 right away. I'm
filing a wishlist bug for this.

For gcc-4.8, I'm still looking for a solution.
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57386

I'm proposing to have gcc-4.7 as default for now with activated
--with-long-double-128.

As soon as GCC's #57386 is solved, gcc-4.8 can be used without problems.

Roland

I have no objection to moving to a unified version of gcc on hppa.   
gcc-4.8

would be my choice.
