AdiosKid Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Hi folks, I wonder if may I use the Gentoo ebuild to install the GCC 5.4, I looked and the funtoo gcc 5.3-r1 ebuild is different of gentoo 5.3 or 5.4 ebuild is safe use the gentoo ebuild to do that ?

0 AdiosKid Posted October 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 thank you for answer, someone more expert could update the ebuild to 5.4 ? and have a wiki updated about use Clang ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 hencb Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 The gcc ebuild has been modified to comply more with upstream versions (not Gentoo). Basically the Gentoo toolchain is in a bad shape, and Daniel Robbins has modified the gcc ebuild to fix some of the issues, and glibc is probably going to be next. You can compare the differences between the gcc ebuilds of Funtoo and Gentoo, you'll see the difference. Most of the complexity is hidden away in the Gentoo ebuild, however, that doesn't mean it isn't shabby underneath. You can try using them, if you're willing to experiment, this is Funtoo after all :) Just don't do it on a system you really care about! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
