Subject: GDB 8.1.1 release -- 2018-07-26 update
Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2018 16:12:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180726161252.GB2404@adacore.com> (raw)
Hello,
I think we can make the 8.1.1 release pretty soon. We have two options.
Either:
(a) Include a simplified version of PR symtab/23010, and then release;
For the record, this is:
[KeithS] PR symtab/23010 (Regression: Assertion: SYMBOL_LANGUAGE (sym) ==[...]
(b) Release as is.
PR symtab/23010 is now fixed in the gdb-8.2-branch, and I think 8.2
is not too far off. So I don't think we really need to do (a),
particularly since the issue is not very common; we can just keep
PR symtab/23010 as a documentation that the problem affects 8.1.1.
There is a third alternative:
(c) Actually not release at all!
The number of fixes on that branch was very small, and now
8.2 is getting very close; so I'm not sure how many people
would stay on 8.1.1 rather than 8.2.
Given that this is just a couple of hours of my time, unless we're
sure it would be useless, I propose we still go ahead with the 8.1.1
release.
Thoughts? For now, I'm thinking of going with (b)...
Thanks!
