Hi
Matt,
Reference Message

Forgive me if I
sound naive. I am not a programmer. The reason that we wanted to use gcc 3.4.3-9
on Fedora is because some of our developers are using Fedora Core 3 and some
have purchased Redhat ES4. RHES4 has gcc-3.4.3-9 while Fedora 3 has 3.4.3-22.
There seems to be an incompatibility between the two versions. Here is an
excerpt of the original complaint.
We have a serious problem with incompatible versions gcc.
It
turns out that the versions of gcc that get installed with Fedora
Core 2,
Fedora Core 3 and RedHat ES4 are different.
There are instances where compile
errors that do not get produced with one
version will be produced on another.
In particular this becomes evident in
forward namespace, forward class and
friend class declarations.
We decided we would rather have 3.4.3-9 because RHES4 is supported and my lead feels that would be more stable solution.
Thanks,
Dalene
