More information

According to https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gcc-git#comment-883479 gcc had a breaking change that needs either A. glibc patched or B. glibc-git (since it is fixed upstream). I updated the glibc-git package, so it should compile again. Once that is done, you need to do an interference in the gcc-git package so it uses glibc-git instead of the default gcc.

gcc-git first added in #1672.

Build failed: glibc-git.log Log will take a while to load, it's 68 MB.

@Technetium1 try now

@VexfulNiko it failed again, but in what looks to be a slightly different way.

Dropped glibc-git and gcc-git because they've been broken for a long time with no fix in sight. They can be re-added someday when they're working.
