Re: GCC 7

Show all headers | View raw

Thanks, Tomás, for your email.

I should have written before that I don't want the GCC 7 to be a 
system-wide compiler, along with libraries and some other dependencies. 
I need GCC 7 to compile my own code (C++17) that I run.  I don't need to 
distribute the binaries.

Yes, GCC 7 is not in the backports, so it's not an option.  There might 
be some Debian packages with GCC 7, but I worry about making a 
FrankenDebian, and the ensuing dependency and linking problems.

Thanks for pointing out pbuilder, I think I'll give it a try.  I also 
might want to try virtual containers, but it seems like an overkill.

I might later drop an email to the debian-gcc mailing list.


Best,
Irek
