Re: Which g++ compiler for potato packages?

[Peter S Galbraith <GalbraithP@dfo-mpo.gc.ca>]

So I can build packages destined for potato on slink with
g++ and libstdc++2.9 from dists/proposed-updates?

Interesting.  I thought I'd have to have glibc-2.1 coexisting
with glibc-2.0, and have glibc-2.1 compilers.

I don't suppose the new builds will run on slink-proper, right?

Thanks a lot!
