[Maria-discuss] Generic Linux Build requirements
http://askmonty.org/wiki/index.php/Building_MariaDB:Generic_Linux says: * gcc 2.95.2 or later However, according to [1] , Gentoo claims that GCC 4.3 is required due the use of c++ templates in the server. [2] also states that GCC-4 is absolutely required with a failing build log. [1] http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=307251#c5 [2] http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=284946

I am sure that c++ templates was supported even for gcc 2.95.2 as we have used c++ templates (for lists) in the code since 1995, way before gcc 3.x. There may be another reason for using gcc 4.3 on Gentoo, but it can't be because of c++ templates. Brian> Brian> [1] http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=307251#c5 This bug report doesn't give any indication of why gcc 4.3 would be required; It's only about marking the packet to require gcc 4.3 for building. Brian> [2] http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=284946 The real bug seams to be: ./include/sync0rw.h:425:2: #error HAVE_ATOMIC_BUILTINS is not defined. Do you use enough new GCC or compatibles? Looks like a bug in the MySQL code. This code has however changed since then, so it may not be an issue anymore. (After all, we do build now with gcc 3.4.3) Daniel> Thanks.

Robin Johnson did some more digging and found that MySQL 5.0.8[3-6] needed GCC 4.3 due to mutex locking changes that were changed again in 5.0.87. Gentoo now recognizes gcc 3.4.3 as the minimum requirement.

Daniel, If you can, please remove my overlay from the instructions for building in Gentoo. Instead, users should build from the Gentoo main tree. The correct procedure is now: 1. Synchronize your tree with "emerge --sync" 2. Build MariaDB using "emerge mariadb"
