https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=218406 ------- Comment #9 from Joseph.Comfort@asu.edu 2007-01-16 10:27 MST ------- (In reply to comment #8) I didn't like what was happening to bug 235256, and was composing a message in my head overnight. Comment #6 above helps me to understand. Yes, links can be done, but that is very tedious to do on a bunch of machines of different architectures. I need some clarity. If I add the symlinks, will that break the gcc4/gfortran installation, because there are now multiple versions? Actually. I have installed both gcc and gcc41 (and related double packages). Would that parallel installation be broken? Should I remove the ...41 packages? If adding symlinks breaks something else, then it seems to me that 10.2 is broken for users in one way or another. Would it be possible to update and redistribute compat-g77 with the symlink(s) in the .../3.3/5 directory? Actually, that works for an i586 system, but there would be problems for x86_64 systems that allow both 32- and 64-bit compilations. I discovered the active bug 127745, and commented there that keeping a fully functional g77 option is still important for awhile. 'WONTFIX' is not good. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
