Source: gcc-16
Version: 16.1.0-3
Severity: important

Hi,

Please configure gcc-16 with --enable-checking=release on all
architectures (currently it is only done for amd64). Now that GCC 16 is
the default GCC version, it has a significant impact on package build
time.

For GCC 15, this configure change was done before the default GCC
version change.

Regards
Aurelien
