Hi All, The big EGCS switch is going to be thrown tomorrow in -current. This will probably mean that a few ports will mysteriously stop building. This won't affect anyone that doesn't build from source or doesn't run -current. Anyone that runs -current and doesn't want to weather the storm, nows the time to CVSup (or whatever you use to get a fresh ports tree) and sit back for a little while, while we straighten things out. It would be a tremendous help if each port's maintainer would install egcs from the port, move the system compiler out of the way, and give their port(s) a try. No need to post successes, but it would be very beneficial to send-pr(1) any fixes you come up with. Thanks. -steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
