Title: gmp.tcz issues
Post by: bmarkus on August 11, 2011, 05:15:04 PM

gmp.tcz contains both binaries and dev files. Would be good to separate. Also repo version is 4.3.2 while current upstream 5.0.2 Would worth an update expecting backward compatibility.

IMHO it would be too risky; I seem to recall it's not fully backwards compatible. For the 4.x toolchain I'll let Juanito comment.

Thanks, jumping a major release is always risky, this is why mentioned. Anyhow, separation of dev files in current tcz would be appreciated not to load unnecessary files in normal use.

I made a test with gmp-5.0.2 for the 4.x tool chain and things seemed OK.

For 3.x, I think it's better to leave things as is, but I'll separate out the dev files next week if I get time.
