Hi, all,

this is the informational message, no action required.

Upon agreement between gcc maintainers and ELN SIG we would like to
switch ELN buildroot to use GCC11 ahead of Fedora Rawhide.

Though ELN is defined as the buildroot where Fedora Rawhide code is
rebuilt into EL-like environment, in the ELN proposal we also
mentioned that ELN can be used to test certain buildroot-related
features on the side so it doesn't block Fedora Rawhide development.

We think that GCC11 is one such feature, where we can benefit from
testing it first on a small subset of the Fedora content in a separate
environment.

I think this is one of the great benefits of having ELN and being able to use it to start integrating such changes. I am looking forward, seeing if that makes it easier for GCC11 to land in rawhide, I would be nice if you could share the issues that were caught during that work in ELN.

Thanks for driving this effort
 

We would like to invite everyone to join this effort.

The work is currently tracked on Github:
https://github.com/fedora-eln/eln/issues/8

Once GCC11 is merged to the eln tag in koji, one would be able to use
it via, for example, mock or container environment:
quay.io/fedoraci/fedora:eln-x86_64

For more info on ELN please refer to ELN Docs (as soon as I update
them, which hopefully happens later today):
