Hi all, Recentls, the GCC 4.2.2 has become available on the stable tree, however, unfortunately only as source. 'Unfortunately', because this means about half a day of compilation time (why isn't there any warning for those who have never tried to compile the GCC from source before and now wonder why update-all isn't completed after the usual 10-30 minutes?). Because I need my Mac frequently, even on weekends (and compilation will slow down the system significantly), I am still hesitating with the update.
What would you say; better continue waiting for a binary package coming soon or better inserting one compilation day (maybe after switching to a flatrate for internet)? Or can I use a binary (if it already exists for my system) from somewhere else and simply copy it into the corresponding directories in /sw (but binary isn't binary, is it?)?
