611305 - Update Thunderbird's Linux 32 & 64 bit builders to use GCC 4.5 on comm-central and comm-aurora

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Thunderbird :: Build Config, defect)

Description

[Mark Banner (:standard8)]

Per bug 559964 we should upgrade our Linux builders to GCC 4.5. Although we're not going to use PGO at the moment, I'd prefer to keep these in sync.

This is now a blocker - the mozilla-central changes are now causing libstdc++ and breaking our tree.

I've closed the Thunderbird tree as a result.

Firefox backed out on the change due to issues, though we should still get 4.5 deployed anyway so we've got it ready.

Taking, as we need to do this now. The builders will get upgraded in bug 659628.

Attachment: Set gcc 4.5 for Linux on aurora and central and try

This changes our mozconfigs for comm-central and comm-aurora where we need it. It also updates the try server mozconfigs.

I also took the opportunity to remove some of the /unittest/ mozconfigs as they are no longer necessary.

patch looks good

Checked in and clobbered and more builds run:

http://hg.mozilla.org/build/buildbot-configs/rev/d71a5f59058f

There's at least one green build. There's one orange, but that looks like a crash and something to do with the stack processing isn't working properly. Will keep an eye on that.
