Welcome! It's not a stupid question :) and we're happy to help. > I have installed Xcode3, which comes with gcc42, but I needed gcc43 or higher > and so I have installed gcc45 using MacPorts.

Thank you for your patience. This is called the "select" feature in MacPorts. Use "port help select" to learn more. Try commands like "port select --list gcc" and "sudo port select --set gcc mp-gcc45". To undo, use "sudo port select --set gcc none". The "select" feature is available for some other ports as well, typically those that have multiple versions available (for example python). _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
