Dario Binacchi July 30, 2026, 8:01 p.m. UTC
Upstream bumped the minimum required gcc version from 6.1 to 8.1 in
commit 84ec3ddf9fd3 ("bump minimum gcc version to 8.1"), so the build
now fails with "Compiler too old; need at least gcc 8.1" on older
toolchains.

There is no gcc 8.0.x release (the 8.x series starts at 8.1.0), so
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_GCC_AT_LEAST_8 is enough to express this dependency.

While at it, add the gcc version to the openblas-arch comment, which
only checked for C++ support and would therefore stay hidden on
toolchains that are too old.

Fixes: 597d5d10ec77 ("package/armadillo: bump to version 15.0.1")
