I was wondering if I altered the /etc/alternatives links for @cc @cpp @gcc etc. to their corresponding newer versions i.e @gcc which now points to -2.95.4 to point to -3.20 and so on....Would that work? I am trying to avoid certain dependencies in developing .debs especially for the AMD processor or mabe this could be set as an environment variable. Any other ideas? Thanks for the two methods already posted. At least I can get the kernel compiled with those solutions. John
