I've concluded that the best thing to do is to disable the i386 assembly optimisations altogether. This was discussed in the Debian bug last year, and gcc-4.4 was used as a workaround. I've asked them to revisit this again.
I am reluctant to suggest anything else, since given the current swing in interest towards MariaDB and Percona, I think it is prudent to keep our delta against Debian and upstream minimal. We could fix the i386 assembly so that upstream could accept it, but I don't think that's a useful use of time. But if anyone else wants to have a go at that, please go ahead. ** Changed in: mysql-5.5 (Ubuntu Raring) Assignee: Robie Basak (racb) => (unassigned) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1162139 Title: mysql-5.5 still built using GCC-4.4, should be built with the default GCC To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.5/+bug/1162139/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
