about the gcc-3.0 package..
I downloaded the gcc-3.0 i386 package (to do a little check), it could seem like it would add a file called gcc-3.0 in /usr/bin. (using debian woody here) Anyone who could confirm whether this is true? If so I guess I could safely install gcc-3.0, and use the normal gcc-2.95.4 for everyday use, and just change to gcc-3.0 when a program neeeds it... --- Rune Elvemo --- Octagon / Digital Minds [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.c2i.net/elvemo

You can. /usr/bin/gcc will point at gcc-2.95 by default. -- Eric G. Miller egm2@jps.net

The general answer to this would be to 'apt-cache show gcc-3.0' and check the Conflicts: line. If it doesn't conflict with gcc-2.95, then it'll coexist just fine. If it doesn't, then it's a bug. There's documentation in /usr/share/doc/gcc-3.0 about this as well. -- Brian Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
