I didn't create the hint, the gcc maintainer did.  I was just describing

I didn't think version specific dependencies would be needed here.  I'm
obviously not well versed in setup, but I thought that replacing the old

dependencies to require the new equivalent packages would have done the
trick.  I guess I was wrong here?
