- This is the Debian GNU/Linux prepackaged version of the GNU compiler
- collection, containing Ada, C, C++, Fortran 95, Java, Objective-C,
- Objective-C++, and Treelang compilers, documentation, and support
- libraries. In addition, Debian provides the GNU Pascal compiler in the
- same source package. Packaging is done by the Debian GCC Maintainers
- <debian-gcc@lists.debian.org>, with sources obtained from:
-
- ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/releases/ (for full releases)
- svn://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/ (for prereleases)
- http://gnu-pascal.de/alpha/ (for GNU Pascal)
- http://dgcc.sourceforge.net/ (for D)
-
- The current gcc-4.3 source package is taken from the SVN trunk.
-
- Changes: See changelog.Debian.gz
-
- Debian splits the GNU Compiler Collection into packages for each language,
- library, and documentation as follows:
-
- Language Compiler package Library package Documentation
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ada gnat-4.3 libgnat-4.3 gnat-4.3-doc
- C gcc-4.3 gcc-4.3-doc
- C++ g++-4.3 libstdc++6 libstdc++6-4.3-doc
- D gdc-4.3
- Fortran 95 gfortran-4.3 libgfortran3 gfortran-4.3-doc
- Java gcj-4.3 libgcj9 libgcj-doc
- Objective C gobjc-4.3 libobjc2
- Objective C++ gobjc++-4.3
- Pascal gpc-4.3
- Treelang treelang-4.3
-
- For some language run-time libraries, Debian provides source files,
- development files, debugging symbols and libraries containing position-
- independent code in separate packages:
-
- Language Sources Development Debugging Position-Independent
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- C++ libstdc++6-4.3-dbg libstdc++6-4.3-pic
- Java libgcj9-src libgcj9-dev libgcj9-dbg
-
- Additional packages include:
-
- All languages:
- libgcc1, libgcc2, libgcc4 GCC intrinsics (platform-dependent)
- gcc-4.3-base Base files common to all compilers
- gcc-4.3-soft-float Software floating point (ARM only)
- gcc-4.3-source The sources with patches
-
- Ada:
- libgnatvsn-dev, libgnatvsn4.3 GNAT version library
- libgnatprj-dev, libgnatprj4.3 GNAT Project Manager library
-
- C:
- cpp-4.3, cpp-4.3-doc GNU C Preprocessor
- libmudflap0-dev, libmudflap0 Library for instrumenting pointers
- libssp0-dev, libssp0 GCC stack smashing protection library
- fixincludes Fix non-ANSI header files
- protoize Create/remove ANSI prototypes from C code
-
- Java:
- gij The Java bytecode interpreter and VM
- libgcj-common Common files for the Java run-time
- libgcj8-awt The Abstract Windowing Toolkit
- libgcj8-jar Java ARchive for the Java run-time
-
- C, C++ and Fortran 95:
- libgomp1-dev, libgomp1 GCC OpenMP (GOMP) support library
-
- Biarch support: On some 64-bit platforms which can also run 32-bit code,
- Debian provides additional packages containing 32-bit versions of some
- libraries. These packages have names beginning with 'lib32' instead of
- 'lib', for example lib32stdc++6. Similarly, on some 32-bit platforms which
- can also run 64-bit code, Debian provides additional packages with names
- beginning with 'lib64' instead of 'lib'. These packages contain 64-bit
- versions of the libraries. (At this time, not all platforms and not all
- libraries support biarch.) The license terms for these lib32 or lib64
- packages are identical to the ones for the lib packages.
