installing gcc from ports question

[Jim McLoughlin]

Hi folks

I am upgrading gcc as required by the gnustep tools I want to use, and have
a couple of questions:

1. What is the latest port release?  I assume it's 3.0.4, since the 3.1 in
the ports appears to have a snapshot of the 3.1 cvs source, even though
gcc.gnu.org lists it as released as of 5/21/2002.  I'm new to how the ports
work for gcc, so I may have the wrong idea here.

2. After installing the gcc30 port, I now see that the newer gcc, g++, etc
have been placed in /usr/local/bin, except they still have 30 appended to
them (gcc30, g++30, etc).  Am I supposed to manually rename the older
gcc/g++ in /usr/bin, and remove the 30 extensions, or should I have expected
the make util to do that?

Thanks

JM

cvsup: to gui or not to gui?

[Jim McLoughlin]

Hi y'all

Am about to install cvsup, and am wondering whether I should use the GUI or
not.  I'm just wondering if the gui version provides any useful
functionality that I will not get command line.  If not, I'm thinking of
using the terminal version so that I will have more options should my X
config become uncooperative at some point.

Any suggestions / strong opinions either way?

JM
