Use update-alternatives Example: $ update-alternatives --list editor /bin/ed /bin/nano /usr/bin/emacs23 /usr/bin/mcedit /usr/bin/vim.basic /usr/bin/vim.gtk /usr/bin/vim.tiny $ sudo update-alternatives --config editor # Presents a menu allowing you to choose $ update-alternatives --list g++ update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for gcc. But I have g++-4.3 and g++-4.4 installed, not sure why Squeeze hasn't set this up; it already was for me on OpenSuse 11.4. Anyways: $ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-4.3 10 $ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-4.4 20 update-alternatives: using /usr/bin/g++-4.4 to provide /usr/bin/g++ (g++) in auto mode. $ update-alternatives --list g++ /usr/bin/g++-4.3 /usr/bin/g++-4.4 Now its all set up, you can simply $ sudo update-alternatives --config g++ and choose the one you want it to be HTH, Andrew -- https://launchpad.net/~andymc73 http://blog.oldcomputerjunk.net Twitter: @andymc73 GPG: http://www.andrewmcdonnell.net/gpg.html -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~oqgraph-dev Post to : oqgraph-dev@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~oqgraph-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
