Compilers on PPC were update to 4.9 recently.
What I'd like to do is:
-
On BE just revert. We are already working on dropping BE from builds for 8.X and later. (I've removed from main download page, next step is to stop building in releases). (4.9 is only need to build later releases)
-
on LE leave it at 4.9, validate that the binaries run on machines with gcc 4.8 installed and if ok update the release machine to match.
-
Figure out how we have multiple compilers on each machine. We are likely to need this in the future and it would be good to know how we are going to accomplish this going forward.
-
Update the ansible scripts so they do the right thing on PPC again.
