Author G++ transition page revived
Frank Lichtenheld

Hi.

As many of you might remember, back in 2003 Matthew Wilcox created
an overview page for the last g++ transition from 2.95 to 3.2/3.3.
You can still find it at
http://people.debian.org/~willy/gcc-transition/ (but the log file
seems to have suffered during the harddrive failure of gluck)

I think this has proven very helpful so I set up a only slightly
modified version for the current transition from 3.3 to 4.0.
You can find it at http://people.debian.org/~djpig/gcc-transition/

As you can see the numbers are currently frightening at best ;)
but with a combined effort we should be able to let that number
drop very quickly. Expect the next BSP announcements soon...

Gruesse,

I think the addition of 4.0 numbers to that page would be interesting.

Hmm, therefor the sentence "This listing is only for i386; other
architectures will vary somewhat" on the page... If someone
cooks up a more intelligent script that includes all arches
I will happily use it.

This listing seems to miss packages built with a certain compiler only on some
architectures. That may be intentional.

Does anyone have a script to sort the list by Depends?

Preferably split them into into buckets that can be done in parallel.

Is it possible (and would it be worthwhile) to show which packages don't
need to be recompiled, and which ones already have been?

There should be nothing on that page that doesn't need to be
recompiled and things that already have been would be the requested
4.0 numbers.
