On Thursday November 6, 1997, Doug Lo <jwlo@ms11.hinet.net> had this to say about "Does port has gcc compiler?": > Hi, > > I've been looking for lastest gcc compiler, I'm using gcc 2.7 and I want > to > upgrade it. But I can't find the port for gcc, would anyone tell me > where > I can get lastest gcc version, thanks. > Doug White and others have posted that gcc is tightly integrated with each version of FreeBSD, and thus it's not a good idea to upgrade gcc without upgrading the version of FreeBSD. I have on occaision been able to upgrade gcc as long as the header files and binaries go in /usr/local/* -- John-David Childs (JC612) Enterprise Internet Solutions System Administrator @denver.net/Internet-Coach/@ronan.net & Network Engineer 1031 S.
