Ultimately, I think what the packaging guidelines should be if
the proposal is accepted are essentially:
For C/C++ projects:
If the upstream has no stated preference for the compiler, the
packager SHOULD use the system default compiler (i.e. GCC).
If the upstream specifies a preference, in their documentation,
build, or support processes, the packager SHOULD follow
the direction of the upstream.
The packager MAY, at their discretion, choose to use
an alternative compiler that is otherwise available in
Fedora. The reasons for those override choices
MUST be documented in the .spec file.
The current proposed changes to the packaging guidelines require
documenting the reason in bugzilla and linking it to an umbrella
"Non-default compiler" bug. Is that sufficient?
