able.

Basically, on a machine where you can cope with possible disruption:

update your pkgsrc tree to HEAD ('cvs up -A')

either do a bulk build, if you do that, or do pkg_rolling-replace, if
you do that. (I know some use make update, but I find it too scary
and do not recommend it.)

If a packge doesn't build, report it here. It's even better if you
can explain the problem or provide a fix, but just a report is
helpful. Include OS version, that you are up to date on pkgsrc HEAD
(when you updated), and how you are doing the build.

If everything builds, there's no need to report that.

Thanks,
Greg

The setting "_GCC_DIST_NAME:= gcc12" in pkgsrc/mk/compiler/gcc.mk doesn't work on my machine. I had to change it to gcc10 because that was the highest gcc available to me, even after re-running cvs up -A in pkgsrc/lang.

after changing that to "gcc10" things worked again (at least, I'm able to compile again).

Here's the output I got if that helps: https://pastebin.com/pEZHHvMj
