Hi Craig, That doesn't sound flip at all and I should have mentioned it in my original email.
Yes, I could do that. But it risks breaking other systems I already use and I strongly prefer to keep my dev tool chain as my distro provides it. I suppose my issue could be restated as, do we really need the latest version or would a slightly older version work? I'd even be willing to test with a older version and see but I'd like some idea whether it's even possible or not.
