Please note that we are not asking a new mass rebuild, just that the current F42 mass rebuild continue as planned.

• Describe the issue
• We are requesting a mass rebuild for the toolchain update to the latest gcc, glibc, binutils and gdb.
• When do you need this? (YYYY/MM/DD)
• By the mass rebuild scheduled date (2025-01-15)
• When is this no longer needed or useful? (YYYY/MM/DD)
• After the mass rebuild is complete (2025-02-04)
• If we cannot complete your request, what is the impact?
• gcc 15, binutils 2.44, and glibc 2.41 would still be a part of F42, but some packages would not have been built against the updated components and may fail to build at a later date or require additional work to integrate correctly into GA.

Notes:

• glibc has been doing weekly rawhide rebases from upstream for the last 6 months as usual and fixing integration issues as they arise.
• binutils has been doing weekly rawhide rebases from upstream for the last 6 months and fixing integration issues as they arise.
• gcc 15 is underoing mass-prebuilds in COPR rebuilding the entire distribution to look for issues ahead of the build in a side-tag.
