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.
