I am running Redhat Linux 7.2. It comes with GCC
2.96. I am attempting to downgrade this to 2.95. I
have downloaded the source and I have performed the
steps listed in the install instructions. After
reading a few other posts I am 95 % sure that I did it
right. But I am left with 1 newbie question. When I
check the version logged in as root with the command
gcc Âv I get version 2.96. When I check it as a
regular user I get 2.95. I am fairly certain that it
is a path issue, but I donÂt know how to change the
path. I can probably figure out the path problem
(Good learning experience), but what I realy need to
know, If I fix that path issue, Will the system by
default use 2.95 when ever I build a program with
make?
Just for refrence here are the steps I took when
installing GCC.
1. Download gcc-2.95.3.tar.gz to /usr/local/src.
2. cd /usr/local/src
3. tar Âzxvf gcc-2.95.3.tar.gz
4. mkdir /usr/local/src/gcc-objdir
5. cd /usr/local/src/gcc-objdir
6. /usr/local/src/gcc-objdir/configure
7. make bootstrap
8. make install
The system is running redhat linux 7.2, on a Pentium
133
Thanks for any help or advice in advance
