Thanks for the detailed bug report. I'm just doing some cleanup, I am
not involved with the GCC package.
The package version is not present in Debian, and the bug is orphan
now.
At this time, the only version of this package is in unstable=sid,
hppa arch, version 4.6.0-2 [1], the version that you reported against
is not present. This version doesn't seem to include libiberty.a at
this moment [2].
[1] http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=gcc-4.6-hppa64
[2] http://packages.debian.org/sid/hppa/gcc-4.6-hppa64/filelist
Please note that the version of the gcc-4.6-hppa64 for this bug is
subsequent
to the version listed in [1] and that for the file list [2].
The conflict still exists in the current 4.6 and 4.7 packages. Both
GCC packages provide /usr/lib/libiberty.a. To install, I need to use
"--force-overwrite". I removed binutils-dev to avoid this issue.
The packages have been built from source and don't reflect the binary
packages
currently available for hppa. These are the hppa64 GCC packages that
I currently
have built and installed:
ii gcc-4.4-hppa64 4.4.7-1 GNU C compiler (cross compiler for
hppa64)
ii gcc-4.5-hppa64 4.5.3-12 The GNU C compiler (cross compiler
for hppa64)
ii gcc-4.6-hppa64 4.6.3-4 GNU C compiler (cross compiler for
hppa64)
ii gcc-4.7-hppa64 4.7.0-6 GNU C compiler (cross compiler for
hppa64)
I am a GCC upstream maintainer. I am also a debian port maintainer
and working
to restart buildd for hppa.
So I think that the bug was a transient error and can be closed now,
so doing it. Please reopen the bug if you have still concerns about
it, and reassign to another package so the bug is not orphan.
The problem is definitely not transient. Please reopen. Only one
package
should provide this file.
Thanks,
Dave
