GCC versions which are supported by the OOo build system

  • gcc-4.x.x is supported
  • gcc-3.3.x is not longer supported, patches aren't any longer accepted
  • gcc-3.4.x is deprecated, patches will be accepted up to including OOO330. Build breakers can't be flagged as "Prio 1", fixes will have to come from the port maintainers using this obsolete version as most developers will not have a way to fix or even to verify the build problem.

Compiler versions used by OOo ports

Port maintainers: please state your current compiler needs on this page. This helps us to decide when we are able to deprecate an old version of a compiler without leaving a port behind.
