Gcc 4.3?
Hello, Can it be possible to provide gcc 4.3 as gcc43 in the repos? Since assembly is broken in 4.4 and therefor mplayer won't compile.
Use the Source, Luke!

And the mplayer guys says that gcc 4.4 is broken.

Re: Gcc 4.3?
According to this: http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mpl … 76637.html, it should compile if you disable liba52. Not an option if you have to handle AC-3 streams though.

Re: Gcc 4.3?
My first hint is to not use -O3 (if you are...) All of the problems I have encountered with gcc-4.4 so far are -O3 related.
I will be pushing an updated toolchain to [testing] soon. This uses a newer gcc-4.4 snapshot so may have a few bugs fixed.
Edit: also look at the gcc-snapshot package. It should be very easy to adjust to gcc-4.3

Re: Gcc 4.3?
I have recognized some problems with my own kde3 repo too which have had no problem before gcc 4.4.0. I give up to find out what happens so it is nice to hear that you will update toolchain.
Edit: also look at the gcc-snapshot package. It should be very easy to adjust to gcc-4.3
Does this mean that i can use gcc 4.3.3 together with gcc-libs 4.4.0? Do i have to recompile all packages which i had compiled with gcc 4.4.0 (kernel at example)? Sorry for this simple questions but i'm not a developper.

Re: Gcc 4.3?
The gcc-snapshot package is designed to install along side the current gcc/gcc-libs. Just change the pkgname to gcc43 and the sources and you will be good to go (using CC=gcc-4.3 ./configure, or something like that). So you only need to use it to compile what you want to.

Re: Gcc 4.3?
@Allan Thanks for the hints and pointing out that i should use gcc-snapshot as example.

Re: Gcc 4.3?
If you remove the UNSET CFLAGS in the script, assuming you dont use -O3 in your custom ones mplayer will build fine.
edit: BTW. if the new toolchain means a new glibc then its gonna be freakin hell! PS. can't wait

Well it is there now with the shiny new glibc-2.10.1...

Its "only" sting const-ness in C++ that is an issue, so not too bad... I'm sure that gcc has thrown warnings about this for a while now.
