Hi,

I bet most of you follow the gcc news as first thing in the morning, but for those that don't: gcc 4.6 is in release mode, so it won't be long before it's released. A prerelease is already in factory as gcc46, but won't be default before our packages are ready to support it.

To prepare for this, Dr.Richard and me prepared a project with the currently failing packages.

Short version: http://is.gd/wJxCY7 Long version: https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor?commit=Filter%3A&failed=1&pkgname=&repo_openSUSE_Factory=1&arch_x86_64=1&lastbuild=1&project=openSUSE%3AFactory%3AStaging%3AGcc46&defaults=0

This project's purpose is mainly to give a count down for the readyness of factory for gcc 4.6. If you want to fix a package for gcc46, you can branch normally and then do osc build --alternative-project=openSUSE:Factory:Staging:Gcc46

It would be great if some volunteer, because for most packages it's the same set of problem. The biggest one right now is that cstdlib is no longer included by default, so you need to change e.g. size_t to std::size_t - or add <cstdlib>

Greetings, Stephan I saw a gcc46 repository in kdf a while ago and added one to my home and multimedia projects then and from the rosegarden developers found
