For SUSE the history is the following: 11.1 comes with gcc 4.3.3, 11.2 with gcc 4.4.1, 11.3 with gcc 4.5.0, 11.4 with 4.5.2, 12.0/12.1 will ship gcc 4.6.2. Debian lenny and squeeze come with gcc 4.4, but it seems that for the next distributions wheezy and sid, 4.5 and 4.6 will be available, at least as additional packages. SL 5 comes with 4.1.2 (sic!), but has 4.4.x as package available, while SL 6 has been compiled with gcc 4.4.5. :( Fedora, around versions 11-14 came with gcc 4.4 but since Fedora 15 (came out in May 2011) gcc 4.6 is shipped with Fedora. Fedora 16 will come out in a week. Ubuntu, I think in the last six versions from 11.04 to 11.10 does come with gcc 4.5, 11.10 has the version 4.5.2. So, it looks that only Debian and SL are not having 4.5 yet.

Debian wheezy (the next stable release) will be based on gcc 4.6, so soon all distributions are ready (except for SL, of course). MAC OS X Snow Leopard and Lion have both packages for gcc 4.6.

Well, someone going to work on this actually? Marco? *g*

As I have recently used this, checkinstall is a very simple way to create the .deb file, see https://wiki.debian.org/CheckInstall
This could be done together with the weekly build in gitlab. So at least for Ubuntu and Debian, the only question is how to get this into the public repositories. For Ubuntu, one could also setup a PPA on launchpad.

At least for Ubuntu, there is something like a coordinator mailing list for scientific software maintainers. Maybe someone could subscribe to them ... and address them

Transferred to Gitlab issue 342.
After the instant-whizard works now (actually we should have a 32bit version of that, too), has this task come any closer?
