Re: [opensuse-factory] GCC 4.7 status

Quoting Andreas Jaeger <aj@xxxxxxxx>:

On Tuesday, April 10, 2012 10:58:27 Dominique Leuenberger a.k.a DimStar
There are currently 22 packages failing in my branch
(home:dimstar:gcc47): libzypp, which causes at least PackageKit to fail
as a result.

For libzypp and friends: It's not clear whether we have a bug in libzypp or
a bug in GCC, might be that the old compiler accepts invalid code...

We can always BuildRequire gcc46 and build using CXX="g++-46" etc, so this
is no show stopper.

Michael spend already a couple of days trying to figure out how to
workaround the bug,

Great if this is accepted as a 'solution' in short term...
We should make sure though that 'only an accepted list of exceptions' is allowed to do that, as most packages wre rather simple to fix.... so don't just take this as the even easier way out.

Dominique...
