I see the problem, and I must say, I use gcc to compile and build binaries for my packages, but if there is an error in gcc... I have a problem, which _I_ can't solve, surely. :) But, my thought was, we are a lot of people to work on debian, and when there are many poeple woprk on proting these packages, then it might be a bit easier to finish that.. you see.... The question is, that we get enough poeple to work on it... ;) I would like to see it... :) And freebsd has gcc-30 , so why should we not have gcc in our next stable? >[fx: waits for PhilB to chime in "Oh, it ain't that bad when you look >at one bit of it at a time". :-] :) -- One time, you all will be emulated by linux! ---- Jan- Hendrik Palic Url:"http://www.billgotchy.de"; E-Mail: "palic@billgotchy.de"
