From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: "Martin v. Loewis" To: gcc@gcc.gnu.org Subject: Removing GNATS categories Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2000 01:49:00 -0000 Message-id: <200003280942.LAA00686@loewis.home.cs.tu-berlin.de> X-SW-Source: 2000-03/msg00719.html The current GCC GNATS installation has a number of categories that haven't been used so far, despite the 145 reports that we already have. I propose to remove them, before anybody uses them. The most useless ones are gc host profiling I'd also like to ban the lib* categories, on the basis that they could go with their front-ends libf2c libgcc libobjc libobjc libstdc++ With the reduced list, people won't get so confused about how to file a bug report. Just how often does it happen that somebody says she has a problem with libgcc - it would rather come out as a problem with exception handling, or a missing _divdi3 function. Opinions? I'd take "no feedback" as "accepted unopposed" :-) Regards, Martin P.S. This should not be taken as criticism of whoever originally created these categories. It was a good starting point, and the change now won't be the last time that we have to adjust the structure of this based on actual user needs.
