Watch out, this is very dangerous! You are comparing strings, not
versions:
>>> print '4.6.2' >= '4.6.12'
True
The better way would be to use distutils.version:
>>> from distutils.version import StrictVersion
>>> print StrictVersion('4.6.2') >= StrictVersion('4.6.12')
False
It is possible to write this one one line, but that looks reall ugly:
%global true_or_false %(python -c "from distutils.version import StrictVersion as v; print v(%{gccver}) >= v('4.6.0')")
