If you bring your system up to date with hamm, the gcc, g++ and egcc packages all contain a README (/usr/doc/<package>/README) explaining the current setup. > Which ones are recommended? For C: gcc (GNU gcc 2.7.2.3 as that's the compiler with which Linux 2.0.x kernels have been developed; there's a problem when a 2.0.x kernel is compiled using egcs gcc). For C++: g++ (from egcs 1.0.3a) with matching libstdc++ (2.8) (and libg++ 2.8 if you need the GNU extensions).
