There is no problem installing multiple MacPorts versions of gcc simultaneously. They're designed to be used that way. (That's true in general when you see multiple MacPorts ports for a single software package, just with different version number suffixes.) In MacPorts, all stable gcc versions use the same gcc libraries: the ones from the latest stable version. So your gcc49 installation is already using the gcc 5.2 libraries (provided by the libgcc port); this is intentional and as far as we know works fine. _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
