Source: gcc-13 Severity: important Tags: ftbfs sid trixie Dear colleagues,
Both GCC 13.1 and 13.2 cause Kodi to FTBFS on s390x [1]. While I first thought of it as something flaky, it looks like something has changed between GCC 12.2 and 13.1 on that specific architecture. I started looking on GCC bugzilla and found the report [2] that gave me some clues: * -fexcess-precision=standard enforces the float-to-double promotions while -fexcess-precision=fast does not. * Kodi is built with explicitly set '-std=c++17' and '-std' enables '-fexcess-precision=standard' option. To test the assumption, I added '-fexcess-precision=fast' to maintainer CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS and managed to complete the build using GCC 13.2.0-1 s390x cross compiler without errors. Please check if this behavior is intended or it is a bug that needs addressing.
