Hello, FreeBSD.
On my laptop with 11-CURRENT and binary packages I have THREE versions of gcc: (1) gcc-4.7.x, required (in runtime!) by gnuradio, gimp and others, I think, via "blas"/"lapack" package. (2) gcc-ecj-4.5, required by gcc-4.7.x (LOL WUT?! It is plain mad!) (3) gcc48-4.8.z, required (in runtime!) by rawtherapee. It is about 750MiB of disk space. FOR WHAT? For two files libgcc_s.so? Maybe, we should encourage ports, which is needed gcc, to use only one version? If many ports needs 4.8, maybe, we should bump "any" version to 4.8 for gcc-less systems? And move all other versions to 4.8? Here is today statistics: 2 4.6 1 4.7 4 4.8+ 138 any 141 yes Or, maybe, there IS way to link to libgcc_s/libstdc++ statically? I bet, most of these ports needs ONLY libgcc_s at runtime. Or build binary packages WITHOUT java by default!? Does anybody uses gcj FOR REAL when we have native openjdk7 and openjdk8?! -- // Black Lion AKA Lev Serebryakov <l...@freebsd.org> _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
