There are 3.1 RPMs for 7.3. Otherwise, the best choices are (1) upgrade the OS or (2) grab the tarball from gcc.gnu.org and install in /usr/local/. With appropriate definitions for $PATH and $LD_LIBRARY_PATH, you can use it just fine in 7.3, as long as you do static linking. -- Matthew Saltzman Clemson University Math Sciences [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.math.clemson.edu/~mjs -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
