[Bug 1866835] Re: update gcc-8 packages for bionic

[Łukasz Zemczak]

Hello Matthias, or anyone else affected,

Accepted gcc-8 into eoan-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-8/8.4.0-1ubuntu1~19.10 in a few
hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
eoan to verification-done-eoan. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-eoan. In either case, without details of your testing we will not
be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Bug description:
  This is a follow-up to LP: #1848319. I'd like to update the gcc-8
  packages in bionic to the final 8.4.0 release.

   - gcc-8, update to the gcc-8.4.0 release
   - corresponding gcc-cross packages

  The package builds are prepared in
  https://launchpad.net/~doko/+archive/ubuntu/toolchain/+packages

  [Impact]
  Provide an upstream release for GCC 8.4, the non-default GCC in 18.04 LTS.

  [Regression Potential]
  There is regression potential, however the compiler is not used by default. Affected packages are libgcc1 and libstdc++6.

  [Test Case]
  No regressions in the GCC test suite.  We don't do a test rebuild, as that would use GCC 7 only.
  Cross compiler packages should just build.

  [Validation]
  Analyze the build logs for regressions.
  For the cross builds, just make sure that the packages build using
  the updated sources.
