| Post subject: | Upgrade to gcc-3.4 |
I'm on R5C7 and would like to install a program that requires gcc-3.4 or newer. Will I break my box if I do this? Here's what apt-get tells me will happen: Code: root@mythbox:/# apt-get install -s gcc-3.4

Looking at the output from "apt-get install -s gcc-3.4 " I see no red flags. Quote: 1 upgraded, 3 newly installed
Things you need to look out for with apt-get are "removed" and "upgraded" It is not removing any and only upgrading one. libgcc1 you can do a "dpkg -l |grep libgcc1" to get an idea of what package is for. |

Thanks, mac. Things seemed to go well. In case anyone is looking at this for a similar update, I also had to re-link the gcc references in /usr/bin to point to the right version. |

Errr... check that. In case anyone is as green as I am with Linux, upgrading gcc allowed me to compile the program I wanted to add (Ndiswrapper-1.25), but I got a complaint about the kernel being compiled with gcc-3.3. Needless to say it did not work when I tried to modprobe ndiswrapper. I found that Ndiswrapper verson <= 1.15 were made with gcc-3.3 and luckily for me, 1.15 works much better with my hardware. |
