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

[Nicky Perian]

I have given up on Debian Squeeze. Wheezy delivers gcc-4.6.3 and the sym links to gcc g++ cpp etc can be changed to gcc-4.6.
Then for the viewer to run on squeeze I deliver libstc++.so with the viewer manifest.
That locks the build to libstc++.so that the viewer was built with. 
I have run the viewer in that configuration on a wide variety of distro's..

I guess those packages simply do not work... They wont install since they 
require glibc 2.14, and after the failed install your debian is dead:

root at debian-build-6-2:/eregion/public/games/SL/3p/gcc backport for squeeze# 
aptitude search glibc
aptitude: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by 
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6)
aptitude: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by 
/lib/libgcc_s.so.1)


Not amused.

Thanks for LVM snapshots.
