Objective-C support in gcc, gdb
After a kind pointer from Guy Maor, the gcc package is noow renumbered to
more closely follow the dpkg release policy for a third party maintainer.
I also compiled gdb_4.16 with the Objective-C support patches from NeXT.
As well, it appears that the _MIT_POSIX_THREADS included in debian work
fine with the Obj-C runtime. So, Debian can now be considred an 'out of the
box' objective-c development platform at the level necessary for ongoing
GnuStep work.
The next task is to debianize the gstep-base project and the rest of the
projects associated with GnuStep. Karl Sackett-- the maintainer of
libobjects-- has been in touch, so it looks like gstep-base will be made
available in short order.
The gdb package is available with all of the various debian-specific
description, changes, and diffs file. Gcc lacks a lot of the debian specific
resources because they didn't build; it is just the debian source tree
with the latest gstep-base gcc support patch.
