We have more or less settled on picking a version for C, and for C++, and always using those versions. I think the big question is whether the C version and C++ version have to match. Or if it's ok to use e.g. base 4.8 for C and pkgsrc 5 for C++ on NetBSD 7. But, if it's mostly ok, and we later decide it's not really ok (maybe when we deal with fortran), that probably won't hurt much, compared to not starting. > - at build time, I want to know my grandparent dependency was built > depending on (gcc6-libs), and depend on (gcc6-libs) too. Does using gcc6 from pkgsrc add that dependency? If we always use the same version, is this necessary?
