gcc-4.3

Hi all,

I have installed gcc-4.3 and all pkgs needed for programming and whene I type gcc, the response is command not found. When I looked in /usr/bin, I found gcc-4.3, gfortran-4.3, g+±4.3 and lotof “something-4.3” but no gcc gfortran g++ etc…

Why this? as if one is forced to make symbolic link after installation!!

is it in your PATH anywhere? My system is working and I haven’t seen this
happen before so perhaps reinstall the packages.

Good luck.

Hi,

which opensuse version do you use? From which repository you’ve installed gcc-4.3? If you installed gcc from not from the default repository but from devel:gcc build service repository then it is quite normal that the installed gcc version does not overwrite the default version (from the default repository) so that the whole suse installation still can work. In this case you get a suffix gcc-<version> similar as you described.

Hope this helps
