This guide isn't for upgrading gcc. Do you really need to change your CHOST? |
| 14 |
If you do be careful when following the above guide since it has the |
| 15 |
potential to break your system bad enough that you'll have to reinstall if |
| 16 |
you aren't careful.. |

This is for gcc upgrades only: |

expat had an ABI bump which requires all programs that link against it to be |
| 38 |
rebuilt. That's a lot of programs... revdep-rebuild is supposed to take care |
| 39 |
of this but since you're going to rebuild everything anyway (due to the gcc |
| 40 |
upgrade and possibly the chost change) this won't really matter to you.. |
