[request] Running CCI for GCC11

[fpelliccioni]

It would be very useful if you could generate the binaries for all recipes for GCC11.

Thanks

That would be fabulous.
The conan gcc 11 docker image was added in conan-io/conan-docker-tools#260 and fixed in conan-io/conan-docker-tools#265: https://hub.docker.com/r/conanio/gcc11

Are there any updates on this?

[SSE4]

it's already there

Is it? I just had a look at some popular packages (e.g. openssl) and there seem to be no gcc11 binarys on conan-center.

it runs for new PRs only, and only if all the dependencies are already built with GCC 11 (entered new epoch).
to add GCC 11 for the existing packages, we may need to run tapaholes which will take significant time (hours, maybe even days, for all the libraries).

@SSE4 Seems like this was never mentioned in the changelog, maybe it could be added retrospectively?

@SSE4 Ok, thank you for your explanation.
