smartin_: For 1.19, I have no definitive plan. Let's say end of July. |
# 19:48:25 |
y_morin |
smartin_: There hasn't been much on-going since 1.18 (and that's y fault), so 1.19 will be light in changes... |

smartin_: I've been pretty much busy with some Buildroot and kconfig related stuff since January, so crosstool-NG has suffered from lack of time since then... |
# 20:03:57 |
smartin_ |
y_morin: ok. yeah, i've followed your work on br too... |
# 20:04:39 |

so, no gcc 4.8.1 in the pipe so far... |
# 20:07:23 |
smartin_ |
y_morin: a quick last question: what's your policy about cve patches on gcc or the libc? do you check for them? |
# 20:08:34 |
y_morin |
smartin_: Well, gcc-4.8 is in the repository, so you can use that. It's pretty stable, and I've been using it, at least for all my RPi related devels. |
# 20:08:46 |
y_morin |
smartin_: Re. CVE: no, I don't follow them. |
# 20:09:23 |
y_morin |
smartin_: Also, I'm a bit reluctant at adding patches to gcc/glibc/whatever. I believe it's better to push changes upstream, and benefit in the next release. |
# 20:10:09 |
y_morin |
smartin_: patches to fix the build are OK, but they have to be fairly simple. |
# 20:10:38 |
smartin_ |
y_morin: ok, i ask because i recently found that archlinux patchs glibc to fix cve with upstream patches |
# 20:10:41 |
y_morin |
smartin_: Adding patches in crosstool-NG has been debated over-and-over-again, and have been the subject of relatively heated discussions. |
# 20:11:07 |
y_morin |
smartin_: Upstream patches are OK to bundle in ct-ng until the next release comes. |
# 20:11:19 |
y_morin |
smartin_: I'm more worried about non-upstream patches. |
# 20:12:32 |
smartin_ |
y_morin: ok, good to know your opinion about this. |
# 20:13:40 |
y_morin |
smartin_: If people want to carry non-upstream patches, they can do so locally, and use the 'bundled-then-local' feature of crosstool-NG. |
