Description:

I noticed makedepends libxcrypt is not necessary. Then I built gcc-12.2.1 using `extra-x86_64-build` with and without libxcrypt as makedepends. After comparing those two packages using pkgdiff, I noticed only some gcc-ada files are different and these differences were likely caused by built time. So, I built gcc again with only changing pkgrel, and compared this one with the original one. Diffrences were just like before. I'd like to upload results of pkgdiff. However, results exceed 2 MiB limit. Patch is attached.


Additional info:
* package version(s) 12.2.1
* config and/or log files etc.
* link to upstream bug report, if any
   PKGBUILD.patch (0.2 KiB)
This task depends upon

Really sorry, I noticed that libxcrypt is a recursive dependency of make. libxcrypt will be installed whether or not it is listed as a makedepends. My pkgdiff tests will be useless.

I'll remove it anyways. It got introduced here: https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/commit/82d3dd6cec79bd5d214ffe530051032258c28b10
