gcoleman on March 3, 2020 | parent | context | favorite | on: FreeBSD has removed GCC from its base system

OP here. I assumed knowledge of how FreeBSD works and the ongoing efforts to move to clang. I can see how the title could be misleading for people who are not familiar.

As others have pointed out "FreeBSD has removed GCC from the. base system" would be a better title.

That would imply that a different version might be left in.
