Installing gcc-10 on buster

2021-10-10 Thread Phil Endecott
Dear Experts, Can anyone suggest the best approach to installing a newer gcc on an older Debian system? Specifically, I have an Nvidia Jetson developer board which is running buster, and cannot easily be upgraded because of the non-free Nvidia stuff. But I'd like to install a newer g++ in order

Package: libstdc++6-4.1-dev Version: 4.1.1-14 Severity: normal Hi, Currently libstdc++6-4.1-dev depends on g++-4.1, and vice-versa. While I think it's reasonable for g++ to depend on libstdc++-dev, I don't see a good reason why libstdc++-dev must depend on g++, and I suggest that this is redu

Bug#443576: Strict aliasing problem

2007-09-22 Thread Phil Endecott
I think I found a bug in gcc-4.2 int i, j; printf("%d %d\n", j, (void *)(j)); This looks like a strict-aliasing issue to me; you're casting from an int to a void*, which is undefined. Did you get any warnings? (Did you compile with warnings enabled? -Wstrict-aliasing?) Investigate the -

Why must libstdc++-dev depend on gcc?

2007-09-20 Thread Phil Endecott
Dear Experts, It seems that the libstdc++-dev packages depend on a particular version of gcc/g++, e.g. $ dpkg -s libstdc++6-4.1-dev Package: libstdc++6-4.1-dev [snip] Depends: gcc-4.1-base (= 4.1.1-14), g++-4.1 (= 4.1.1-14), libstdc++6 (>= 4.1.1-14), libc6-dev (>= 2.3.6-7) I can understand

Bug#357629: This patch needs changes

2006-08-28 Thread Phil Endecott
I've just tried building gcc-3.3 with this patch applied and it gets the Provides: lines wrong for libstdc++. Comparing it with the patch for gcc-3.4 (bug #357658) I changed the mentions of GCC_SO to CXX_SO in the obvious places, and it superficially seems to work. (I'd love to see a release
