Re: CCC/CXX installation
see http://www.physik.tu-cottbus.de/~george/unix/ccc.html for my experience on using alien on the compaq .rpm's. It is tricky, especially if you use gcc 3.x, but it works. And you get your .deb.

Re: CCC/CXX installation
OK, I grabbed the latest rpms, and have a key. I noticed that the cxx rpm's version number is higher than the one in the .deb, so decied to not try installing cxx, and just restrict myself to ccc.

CCC/CXX installation
It's probably time for my yearly attempt to install the Compaq C compiler, and I'me hitting trouble before I even start (however, I'm not phased, it's never worked i the past, and I'm desensitized now). I notice that I have the following files (downloaded from a previous attempt) ccc-6.5.9.001-6.alpha.rpm.cryptcxx-6.5.9.28-1.alpha.rpm.crypt However, looking at my email records, it appears that I no longer have the gpg key for the crypt files (almost certainly lost in a move between e-mail providers). Are the downloads keyed to a particular user, or did everyone get the same key? If the latter, I don't suppose one could mysteriously appear in my inbox, could it?
