Hello All! In a recent discussion, it appeared that having samples use features marked as EXPERIMENTAL was not that good an idea. Now, when a user recalls a snapshot that uses EXPERIMENTAL features, he/she gets warned about it, and is advised to review the configuration before going on. Currently, in crosstool-NG, snapshot versions are guarded by EXPERIMENTAL, which is a hint to the user that snapshots are to be considered with care before being used. On the other hand, some samples use a snapshot version of some components (most notably uClibc) because no recent release is yet available, and the snapshot is working well. So, my question to the crosstol-NG users hanging around: Should we keep snapshot versions guarded with EXPERIMENTAL, or not? This applies to: - binutils 'point' snapshots (the ones like 2.18.x.y.z); - uClibc daily snapshots; - glibc weekly snapshots; - gdb latest snapshot. Regards, Yann E.
