enabling link time optimizations in package builds

2022-06-17 Thread Matthias Klose
Link time optimizations are an optimization that helps with a single digit percent number optimizing both for smaller size, and better speed. These optimizations are available for some time now in GCC. Link time optimizations are also at least turned on in other distros like Fedora, OpenSuse

GCC 9 was released earlier this year, it is now available in Debian testing/unstable. I am planning to do the defaults change in mid August, around the time of the expected first GCC 9 point release (9.2.0). There are only soname changes for rather unused shared libraries (libgo) involved, and

OpenJDK Cacao GCJ Java defaults in unstable

2009-03-15 Thread Matthias Klose
Hi, openjdk-6 in unstable is updated to the 6b14 code drop, built from a recent IcedTea snapshot. There are a few regressions in the ports which don't use the hotspot VM, but the Zero VM. Help from porters would be appreciated. There are two new binary packages offering additional JVMs: -

The plans for the GCC 4.2 transition were described in http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2007/06/msg8.html Does any port still need to stick with GCC 4.1 for a while? Feedback from hppa, mips*, s390, powerpc, amd64, i386 porters doesn't show objections against the transition.

While having built and uploaded things correctly for experimental, I didn't do the same for unstable, which now needs some manual intervention building gnat-4.1 and gcj-4.1. gnat-4.1 (mips mipsel s390 sparc): - work in a sid chroot - install gnat-4.1-base libgnat-4.1 libgnatprj4.1

I'm unable to test this on sparc (Ben?). Anyway: - which packages and versions are installed before? (gcc-3.0, gcc-3.0-sparc64, gcc-3.0-base) - does removing the old packages (gcc-3.0, gcc-3.0-sparc64) work around the problem? [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Package: gcc-3.0-sparc64 Version:
