Do you have any ideas on rationlizing the installation so that it works the way the Gnu folk apparently intended? In particular, I'd like to have c++ call the current gcc.
The current GCC release is 2.95.2, for which we currently offer no SuSE package. The only way to get that would be to grab the current sources and compile it yourself. Depending on the languages you want/need, use --with-languages=. For a current SuSE system, I'd recommend the following configure switches (assuming you only need C and C++): ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --enable-languages=c,c++ Then do 'make bootstrap' or 'make bootstrap-lean' if you're a bit short on disk storage.
