kernel 2.5.68 and egcs64
Hi all,
from this kernel version init/main.c implements a check about gcc
version used to compile the kernel (line 63) and it fails with egcs64
shipped with Debian.
The only workaround I found on the fly and with basically no investigation
was to purge egcs64 and create a symlink in /usr/bin for sparc64-linux-gcc
to gcc-3.3 (gcc-3.2 will fail because of an unrecognized options).
Im not sure if this is the proper fix so I would like someone more expert
to take a look to it before reporting bugs to any package (if it is a
bug).
But if my feelings are correct probably gcc-3.3 should replace egcs64 and
provide sparc64-linux-gcc.
Thanks
Fabio
