https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=215193 --- Comment #14 from Dimitry Andric <dim@FreeBSD.org> --- (In reply to Gleb Popov from comment #13) Yeah, I think the idea was to eventually get rid of a compiler in base, and replace it by a package? Then you could pick and choose whatever compiler you'd want to use to build the base system. For example, maybe you would prefer gcc over clang, and use that. Or build the base system with a different version of clang, as some people already do. The only requirement for the base system is a C++ standard library, which you can compile your C++ programs against. That would be libc++-in-base, and it would be completely private. Alternatively, you could get rid of C++ programs in base, and move those to ports too. Then you could eliminate the entire need for a C++ library in base. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
