Well that's all find and dandy in the binary distro world. But we're |
11 |
gentoo people ;-) binaries ? rpms ? debs ? I jedi craves not these |
12 |
things. |

uClibc does not "gaurantee" binary compatability among releases. Some |
15 |
of the releases keep it, some don't. I don't think it would be a big |
16 |
deal to have a flag in the ebuilds that said "ABI has changed, |
17 |
recompile all packages" |

The storage savings in embedded systems with uClibc is worth FAR |
20 |
more(to me) than the occasionaly total system recompile. Especially |
21 |
if distcc gets to the point where you can distcc your cross |
22 |
compiles....</wish> |
