Bug 1444274 will bump our minimum GCC version to 6.1. GCC-7 will continue to work.
If you build with GCC instead of Clang on Linux, I've been told that the system gcc package for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS is gcc-5, so very soon you'll need to install a gcc-6 package to continue to build. With a bump to GCC 6, along with the bump to vs2017, we should be able to start relying on c++14 features. This will help out with tracking upstream projects which are starting to rely in c++14, as well as letting us phase in new tools into our c++ toolbox. (relaxed constexpr is a big one) _______________________________________________ dev-builds mailing list dev-builds@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-builds
