[parisc-linux] New native gcc debs

[Matt Taggart]

I have built new hppa native gcc debs based on March 5th pehc cvs and placed 
them at,

ftp://puffin.external.hp.com/pub/parisc/binaries/new-debs/debian/

They are,

gcc-2.97-base_2.97-010203_all.deb
cpp-2.97_2.97-010203_hppa.deb
protoize_2.97-010203_hppa.deb
fixincludes_2.97-010203_hppa.deb
libobjc1_2.97-010203_hppa.deb
g++-2.97_2.97-010203_hppa.deb
libstdc++2.97_2.97-010203_hppa.deb
libstdc++2.97-dev_2.97-010203_hppa.deb
g77-2.97_2.97-010203_hppa.deb
libgcc297_2.97-010203_hppa.deb
gcc-2.97_2.97-010203_hppa.deb
cpp-2.97-doc_2.97-010203_all.deb
g77-2.97-doc_2.97-010203_all.deb
gcc-2.97-doc_2.97-010203_all.deb
gobjc-2.97_2.97-010203_hppa.deb
libstdc++2.97-dbg_2.97-010203_hppa.deb
libstdc++2.97-doc_2.97-010203_all.deb

After installing you'll need to,

- Remove the gcc package since it doesn't conflict on its own
   `dpkg -r gcc`
- Setup symlinks for gcc and cc
   `cd /usr/bin;ln -s gcc-2.97 gcc;ln -s gcc-2.97 cc`

I will fix both of these problems later. I have noticed that quite a few 
packages in Debian that use c++ don't seem to be 2.97(v3) clean yet. So far I 
can't build apt, jade, and ncurses.  I have been able to build quite a few 
other things though and I have placed the debs in the above directory.

Please report any problems you have.

Thanks,

The apt build failure seems to be that the apt compile is unable
to see things in the 'std' namespace -- possibly a new mode of 2.9.7
and I have no clue how to fix this (namespaces are newer than my
working C++ knowledge).

i think taggart had a g++ flag that might help, but absent that adding
some strategic "using namespace std;" in the source might help. i am
having lots of binutils problems (segfaults -- more in a separate mail)
but will try to investigate further.
