ok, I'll upload a new versions with urgency=high. The current packages
are not suitable for sarge. We'll need newer packages for
- gcc-3.4_3.4.3-6, containing a current libunwind lib.
- libunwind-0.98.3-3
- gcc-3.2_3.3.5, depending on the new libgcc1 from gcc-3.4_3.4.3-6
- glibc -20, depending on the new gcc-3.4.
I'm currently waiting from the ia64 people review of the packages at
http://people.debian.org/~doko/gcc-3.4/ After that I'll upload the
packages. A new glibc should be uploaded, after the gcc builds have
started, or else the gcc builds will fail due to an uninstallable
locales package (which I fail to understand why that dependency isn't
fixed :-( ).
Sorry for inconvenience, that unwind based exceptions was more painful
than expected.
Matthias
