This is a follow-up to LP: #1848319. I'd like to update the gcc-8 packages in bionic to the final 8.4.0 release.
- gcc-8, update to the gcc-8.4.0 release - corresponding gcc-cross packages
The package builds are prepared in https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages
[Impact] Provide an upstream release for GCC 8.4, the non-default GCC in 18.04 LTS.
[Regression Potential] There is regression potential, however the compiler is not used by default. Affected packages are libgcc1 and libstdc++6.
[Test Case] No regressions in the GCC test suite. We don't do a test rebuild, as that would use GCC 7 only. Cross compiler packages should just build.
[Validation] Analyze the build logs for regressions. For the cross builds, just make sure that the packages build using the updated sources.
