I have a package (exult) using C++. It reportedly does not work very good on certain architectures when compiled with g++ 2.95, so I want to move it to g++ 3.0. I read on -devel that compiling packages with g++ 3 is problematic since they will not correctly link with C++ libraries built with an older compiler. I figure this will not be a problem for my package because it does not depend on any C++ libraries other than libstdc++, which should be ok. Normal C libraries are no bother, I assume. Is this correct? If yes, I'd like to have comments on my method: I build-depend on g++-3.0, and do "CC=gcc-3.0 CXX=g++-3.0 ./configure ..." in my rules. -- Robbe
