Use openSUSE Tumbleweed if you want the latest and greatest ;)
What is leap? Isn't that the latest (non-rolling) release? I looked for the latest under the distributions dir: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/ and went from there. I just found a http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/ Which I take it is the TW repo? Isn't TW a distribution? Is there a reason why there isn't, _at_ _least_, a link under the distributions dir? For someone who's never used TW and always looked for the latest distributions under the distributions dir, its not readily found (i.e. in the default distributions dir). Maybe the web maintainers might throw idiots who look for distributions under the distributions dir a 'bone' and toss in a link? ;-) ... That said, though, I'm still not clear why current distributions (like leap) don't have upgraded gcc-defaults where gcc pulls in the latest gcc. You said:
Because it's an old product and changing the compiler that is used to build packages (and security updates) is a PITA.
I thought the latest leap *was* the current distro -- not an "old product" (i.e. not talking about pre-'latest' releases. Isn't the latest leap release still in factory? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
