Do you use the http: or git: protocol for cloning? The official gcc git repo only supports the "old" git http: protocol, which is almost useless on slow/high-latency networks... [There's also a github mirror, and github supports the "smart" http: protocol: https://github.com/mirrors/gcc.git ] -Miles -- Consult, v.i. To seek another's disapproval of a course already decided on.
