Package: src:grub2
Version: 2.00-22
Severity: important

Hi,

Would it be feasible for grub2 to migrate away from gcc-4.7 in Jessie?

Note, that grub2 currently has several RC bugs affecting unstable,
which makes the current grub2 unable to migrate.  These may affect the
possibility of getting the change into Jessie, so please keep them in
mind estimating whether this is feasible.


Currently, only libreoffice and grub2 maintains a dependency against
it in testing.  We are hoping that we might be able to remove gcc-4.7
for Jessie.
