Bug ID: 66570
Summary: libbacktrace is not installed
Product: gcc
Version: unknown
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: libgcc
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: jj at stusta dot net
Target Milestone: ---
libbacktrace is really useful and can be used by user programs perfectly.
Please install the library by default.
Currently: libbacktrace/Makefile.am:
noinst_LTLIBRARIES = libbacktrace.la
Gentoo won't install it on its own:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=552098
Debian already includes the library in in libgcc-4.8-dev and later
(https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/libgcc-4.9-dev/filelist).
We'd like to use libbacktrace for http://openage.sft.mx/ but because of this
issue many distributors don't provide the probably best backtrace library.
