Subject: RFC: Raise required gcc version to 3.2 ?
Date: Thu, 28 Jul 2005 14:00:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050728120012.GB3528@stusta.de> (raw)

What is the oldest gcc we want to support in kernel 2.6?

Currently, it's 2.95 .

I'd suggest raising this to 3.2 which should AFAIK not be a problem for 
any distribution supporting kernel 2.6 .

Is there any good reason why we should not drop support for older 
compilers?

Adrian
