Quoting Paul Hewson <P.J.Hewson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>:
Something similar happened with GCC (can't remember version numbers, but I think Red Hat @'# had a GCC (2.96??????) before it had been released.
Yeah it was GCC 2.96ish in Redhat 7.0 that was very broken. It wouldn't compile anything! At least they shipped kgcc which allowed Kernels to be compiled, and also everything else. At the end of the day I just symlink gcc to kgcc. It also seems Redhat 7.1 also ships two version of gcc, and they seem to work fine. (Including kernels) [pete@xxxxxxxxxx pete]$ gcc -v Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/2.96/specs gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-85) [pete@xxxxxxxxxx pete]$ kgcc -v Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/egcs-2.91.66/specs gcc version egcs-2.91.66 19990314/Linux (egcs-1.1.2 release) Anyone know if they gone back to one version of gcc in Redhat 7.2?
