Package: gcc-4.5 Version: 4.5-20100227-1 Severity: wishlist GCC-4.5 has a gold linker plugin to do LTO, see http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/whopr/driver
It should already be built during a normal gcc-4.5 build, the plugin should be called liblto-plugin.so. I can't find that in the Debian experimental package, please add it to the gcc-4.5 package (or create a new package for it). It should allow more LTO optimizations than just -flto alone. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.33-00175-g2d1299a0 (SMP w/4 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gcc-4.5 depends on: ii binutils 2.20.1-3 The GNU assembler, linker and bina ii cpp-4.5 4.5-20100227-1 The GNU C preprocessor ii gcc-4.5-base 4.5-20100227-1 The GNU Compiler Collection (base ii libc6 2.10.2-6 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcloog-ppl0 0.15.8-1 the Chunky Loop Generator (runtime ii libelfg0 0.8.12-0.1 an ELF object file access library ii libgcc1 1:4.5-20100227-1 GCC support library ii libgmp3c2 2:4.3.2+dfsg-1 Multiprecision arithmetic library ii libgmpxx4ldbl 2:4.3.2+dfsg-1 Multiprecision arithmetic library ii libgomp1 4.5-20100227-1 GCC OpenMP (GOMP) support library ii libmpc2 0.8.1-1 multiple precision complex floatin ii libmpfr1ldbl 2.4.2-3 multiple precision floating-point ii libppl-c2 0.10.2-6 Parma Polyhedra Library (C interfa ii libppl7 0.10.2-6 Parma Polyhedra Library (runtime l ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages gcc-4.5 recommends: ii libc6-dev 2.10.2-6 Embedded GNU C Library: Developmen Versions of packages gcc-4.5 suggests: pn gcc-4.5-doc <none> (no description available) pn gcc-4.5-locales <none> (no description available) pn gcc-4.5-multilib <none> (no description available) pn libgcc1-dbg <none> (no description available) pn libgomp1-dbg <none> (no description available) pn libmudflap0-4.5-dev <none> (no description available) pn libmudflap0-dbg <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
