[opensource-dev] Not actually OT: How do I get/update gcc to 4.6 on debian squeeze?

[Nicky Perian]

Lance, Oz, plans to release as much as possible about LL linux build system.

While waiting on that I am doing the following for Linux 32 bit on Kokua.
Use a Debian wheezy vm. change the sym links @cpp @g++. @gcc
from gcc-4.7 to gcc-4.6 as it appears to be the same compiler that LL backported to squeeze.

Then when run on squeeze the libstdc++ mismatches happened.

To work around that  my hackish approach is to copy the build system libstdc++ into
the manifest.

That allows the viewer to run on squeeze without a mismatch.

I don't plan to support anything older than squeeze.

Also, I tested on Linux Mint 17 32 bit and there were no ill effect moving forward.

Nicky
