15 Hi,
16
17 as far as I can tell it works mostly. There are some packages which
18 seem to break:
19
20 - - firefox and thunderbird, if I remember correctly
21 - - chromium (theres an open bug on bgo)
22 - - hardened-sources: the neccessary gcc-plugins don't work because they
23 can't find the right symbols because gcc-4.7 is normally compiled with
24 g++ which mangles the symbols. Don't know how to work around that,
25 though it seems to be possible to compile gcc-4.7 with gcc - I just
26 don't know how
27
28 For all packages which break it's possible to switch to your old
29 gcc-version (unless you uninstall it).
