The majority of our servers are now running gcc-4.4.2-r2! And we've had no |
10 |
trouble we can attribute to the compiler. |
11 |
Our build machines did the whole emerge -e thing, but on the servers we just |
12 |
installed gcc (emerge gcc -Nu1Kv), switched compiler, then updated world |
13 |
(emerge world -DNuKv). They all had between 1/2 and 3/4 of their packages |
14 |
updated, including all the important stuff (apache, php, rails, nginx, mysql, |
15 |
postgres, etc). |

I can now build modern Xen kernels too! |
