At the linuxfromscratch project, we document for users how to build a relatively
complete Linux system from source code. When we do this we consider bash to be one
of the most important packages in the system.
https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/stable/
Our policy is to use the most recent "stable" versions of applications (that is, no
release candidates or git clones) when at all possible. Right now we are using
bash-5.2.37. Recently gcc-15.1 was released and we would like to update our system
to that, but bash-5.2.37 does not build with that version of gcc.
We have looked at bash-5.3-rc1 which was released om April 8th and that does build
with gcc-15. Can you give us an idea when the stable bash-5.3 will be released?
Thanks.
