I think I've asked this before, but I can't remember so here I go again.
I'm downloading all the RPM's for RH9 so I can update all the packages on my RH7.2 system. My question, is this a bad idea? The only reason I'm doing this is to get the latest gcc files, and to get gcc++ and libstdc++ and libstdc++-devel I have to remove 82 packages (indcluding some Apache modules, most of KDE, and a few other miscellanous files).
I really only want ONE package (FreeCiv 1.14 (which requires glibc2, which when installed removed all the RH7.2 gcc files, which I figured might as well update anyways, which leads us to gcc++ 3.2.2-5 needing libstdc++ 3.2.2-5 which means 82 packages (including my web browser/mail client) gets removed, so if they get removed I figure I could update them, too)).
If you have the time to down load all RPM's you might as well get the ISO image for 9.0 and do install update.
or
get the latest gcc 3.2.x binary then compile and install.
